Interpretation

Commentary
Area A. By the same author as L 8 (which is on a contiguous large stone) and by the father of the author of L 6 (which is on the same stone). The drawing on this stone appears to be claimed by the authors of L 5 6 and 8. However since the word ḫṭṭ can refer to both inscriptions and drawings it is not certain whether any or all of them are claiming the picture. Associated drawing to be numbered.
