Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
Corbett (2010: 341) commented: "The PN ḥnk appears in three earlier texts from same area (R630.04, R630.05, R631.01). flnt is also likely a single lexeme (“such and such a girl”). The text was probably carved as an emotive/love inscription. There are two characters (k and r) above the text that are possibly related to the inscription".
