TEXT Corbett: b tb rather than b ṭb. DISCUSSION Hayajneh (2009: 212–213) commented: "The inscription, which is engraved on the upper edge of the cascade, runs from left to right. It is divided into two lines, with the second above the first. The text is written in Ḥismaic script, though its contents are more typical of Nabataean inscriptions".
