- TRANSLATION wdʿ, Jobling: "(he) watch over"; ḫṭṭ, Jobling: "(he) wrote"; 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: 339) commented: "This text is carved in several columns. I have taken the object of the prayer to be zdmnt [son of rmʾl] of the rmʾl lineage".
