Interpretation
- Commentary
- Written around a drawing of a camel. There are several extraneous lightly scratched lines among the letters, and those on either side of the ʿ are particularly confusing. It is almost certain that LP 93, by one of "the servants of the Princeton University Archaeological Expedition" (Littmann 1943: iii) is another copy of this inscription.
