Siglum
WH 2410
Transliteration

Translation
By Ḫld son of {Ql}

Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
WH: bq{ʾ} for {q}{l}
Commentary
All the letters have been joined to each other by lines or dots, sometimes several between adjoining letters, as in the last two. There are two other texts which are too heavily damaged to make sense of, and one (WH 2410.1) thinly incised within a cartouche.

Provenance
WH Cairn 34 and this inscription were rediscovered and photographed by the Badia Epigraphic Survey in 2018 and the co-ordinates given are exact.
