- TRANSLATION ḫṭṭ, Corbett: "(he) carved". To take ḫṭṭ as a verb here is too vague in a context where the inscription is in effect a signature to the drawing. DISCUSSION Corbett (2010: 322–323) commented: "The inscription occurs to the right of a complex ibex hunt scene (a1-a10), between the ibex (a1) and one of the hunters (a3). The space between the l characters of kll has been infilled, slightly obscuring the two letters. I have taken the author/artist to be bglt [son of zdlh] of the s²hr lineage".
