Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
Corbett (2010: 332) commented: "The inscriptions on this stone are focused in and around a central hunt scene of an ibex (a1-a6). The figures of the ibex hunt (the ibex, three dogs, two hunters) are quite large and dominate the carving surface. Many of the texts are faded and/or not deeply inscribed, making the readings of some texts difficult. This short text is found just above the head of the central ibex (a1). I take this to be this signature of bnn [son of zdmnt] of the rmʾl lineage".
