Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
Corbett (2010: 302) commented: "In this inscription, the initial consonant in the name of the deity is d, not the 2 that is expected in Thamudic E. The final patronymic (PN2) has been read simply as ʿ, although it is more likely that the author never finished carving the name".
