WH 3071

Interpretation

Commentary: The first two letters aligned with the third and are just visible on the photograph though they have been missed on the facsimile. The first two letters shown on the latter are in fact natural marks on the rock. The text has been heavily vandalised by the addition of lines to most of the letters. The third letter was probably a g which has been turned into a s¹ the two ʿ's have been truned into w's a thicker horizontal stroke has been added across the top of the n and a side-stroke added to the ḏ.
