Commentary
NAEN I p. 34 n. 18: ----f-----b (or r) h- dr h- ḍʾn b- rḥbt b- ʿs²b - this place the sheep in rḥbt on green pasture

Provenance
This is a large area including most of the Ruḥbah and the eastern edge of the Ṣafā. Unfortunately C does not supply any further information on the provenance of this inscription and, to the best of our knowledge, the area has not been revisited. However note that C 296–298 were rediscovered on the summit of Jabal Says.
