Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
Corbett (2010: 298–299) commented: "This long genealogical inscription is quite clear, except for the signs between PN2 and PN3 that occur in an area of heavy weathering and later carving. The traces of bn and ʾ are obscured though evident. At the opening of the inscription, to the right, there is an unrelated marking. The first four members of the genealogy are also found together in two texts from the Wādī Judayyid (KJB 47, 57). Towards the end of the inscription (to the right of PN6), there is a small animal drawing unrelated to the text".
