Apparatus Criticus
TEXT Harding & Littmann: mʿḍ for m{ġ}ṯ and fgṯ for fḍg; Winnett: l mʿḍ bn rms¹ bn mʿn bn fgṯ rather than l m{ġ}ṯ bn rms¹ bn mʿn bn fḍg. DISCUSSION King (1990: 666) commented: "My copy gives the third letter a tail and I think it is possible that it should be read ġ, unfortunately, however, it cannot be justified from the photograph. Harding reads the letter ʿ and suggests it stands for /ġ/ as the name mġṯ bn rms¹ occurs in TIJ 260".
