Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 335) commented: "The text curves up after the third name. There is a b written to the left of the last three letters of qdmt, the author started to continue the text here and then because of the lack of space decided to write the last name on the other side, up the rock. Neither bnmṭr or brḥt are in Harding 1971".
