Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
TEXT Winnett: l{z}rʿ b[n] rather than {r}{g}{l}ʿb. DISCUSSION King (1990: 676) commented: "Read from a photograph taken on the survey. The text is doubtful and I do not know how to interpret it except for the last four letters that are perhaps the name mqʿd. There appears to be a r at the beginning and the letter that follows, which has been read l in the edition, is most probably a g. The are some letters running from left to right underneath the beginning --bq---".
