Interpretation
- Apparatus Criticus
- Corbett (2010: 363) commented: "This text is carved in three parallel columns, although the center column is read first. It is unclear in which order the other columns should be read with the text, but the interpretation is clear. The last column of text occurs above a drawing of a she-camel (w/rider?). The author’s use of kll and the lack of other certain drawing signatures would suggest that wʿl was the artist not only of this camel (a1), but also the three other she-camel drawings (a2-a4) on the left side of the stone that are carved in a similar style".
