- LP 943: lbt for kṯ{b}t.
- Commentary
- Area A. The b could also be read as a r: it has the form of a semi-circle whereas the b of bn has that of two thirds of a circle. Moreover the author made a distinction between the b which is 90° and this letter which is written in normal script. The m is also 90°. There is a prehistoric drawing (a circle) touching the upper part of the letters k and ṯ.
