- TRANSLATION ḫṭṭ, King: "[the] inscriber". DUSCUSSION King (1990: 287) commented: "The text is written down the side of the camel’s neck, round underneath the animal and then up to the left of its hind leg. The ṭ’s at the end are written in the opposite direction to the rest of the text. For other occurrences of ḏʾb bn s¹mʿn, see Index a. The names occur again in KJB 156 on this rock. For this formula used with drawings, see Ch.4.B.2".
