Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 202) commented: "The inscriber has confused the positions of the q and d in the second name. For other examples of mistakes in the inscriptions, see Ch.3.B.10. zdqm is not in Harding 1971. For other occurrences of hnʾ bn zdqm, see Index a. The ibex were probably drawn by hnʾ".
