Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 237) commented: "Below KJA 285. The rock surface surrounding the inscription is damaged. Only a small part of the l remains and part of the ḥ has disappeared. The z is written at a slant and part of one of the lines has chipped away. The name ḥzbr is not in Harding 1971. It occurs frequently elsewhere at these sites, see Index a".
