Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
Corbett (2010: 347) commented: "This inscription occurs above a drawing of an ibex (a1) being attacked from behind by a hunting dog (a2). The introductory w here is unexpected without an accompanying ḫṭṭ phrase. I have taken the author/artist to be s¹mdt [son of zdlh] of the s²hr lineage".
