Interpretation

Commentary
Area A. Ḫrm could also be read ḫbn. It is however more likely to be a r because although the shape of the letter is very much like the b in this text it is much larger and has a wider angle. There is a blob on one end of the ʾ but the second sprong of the ʾ is still visible. This text was written after L 148 because the author was hampered by its presence. Associated drawing to be numbered.
