Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 341) commented: "Written downwards and then curving round back up the rock. The names mtr, ʾṭḫd and krrt are not in Harding 1971. For other occurrences of the genealogy, see Index a and Ch.5.C.2, genealogy 2. ʾs¹mnt bn ḥrm bn mtr in KJC 176 on this rock is possibly the author’s cousin".
