Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 280–281) commented: "The f has been joined on to the l. There is a straight line above and to the left of the text. fḫn is not in Harding 1971. It is possible that the name was intended to be fḫtn which occurs in KJB 112 on Rock LXVI nearby and, either the text is unfinished and the last letter here is an incomplete t or, the t was left out".
