Interpretation
- Apparatus Criticus
- LP 333 read the first name as ʿḏy, but the "y" is in fact the head and neck of the camel-rider. He read the third name as wdʾl but the strokes he took as " ʾl " are in fact the front legs of the camel.
- Commentary
- The text is carved around a drawing of a man on a camel which has been badly hammered over.
- Associated Drawings
- A man riding a camel with many tassels and trappings.
