Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 657) commented: "Jamme 1967: 65 l s¹drt bn rhn. It is possible that Jamme is right and the third letter should be read as d, although it would be unusual for the loop to be inscribed as a stroke (cf. however the d in HU 121, Tham. C). The fourth letter is definitely a circle but I have emended it to r".
