- 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: 339) commented: "This text is carved in several columns. The beginning of the second column has an effaced character, likely a scribal erasure. There is a later mark carved above the text".
