Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 302) commented: "The inscription is written down from under the neck of a drawing camel to which it refers. The is l and a short straight line to the right of the inscription which is probably a false start at another text. zdn is not in Harding 1971. For this formula used to express the authorship of drawings, see Ch.4.B.2".
