Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 215) commented: "Following directly on from KJA 166. There is no initial l. I have read the preceding l with KJA 166 as the technique of inscribing is similar to the other letters in that text. The fifth letter is hammered over, it possibly reads t. The name, if that is what it is, is not in Harding 1971".
