Interpretation
- Commentary
- The loops of the ṯ and the d can be seen on the colour photographs. The author appears to have forgotten the w after dʾy and then added it above the line between the y and the q. The final t is clear, but anything after it has been obscured by a patch of hammering. A verb in the 1st person singular is highly unusual in these graffiti.
