Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 312–313) commented: "The fork of the ṣ has chipped away and I have restored the letter on the basis of the name occurring elsewhere, see Index a. The name is not in Harding 1971. This was originally read with KJC 58a as one text but the latter is inscribed in slightly rougher and thicker lines which suggests it is a separate text".
