Interpretation
- Commentary
- The last part of the inscription is written on a second face of the rock and is worn and partly damaged by a chip. On snfḥt see KRS 1878 and 1879. The presence of bql "spring herbage" in KRS 1879 suggests that snfḥt is not a plant but either an animal or a topographical feature.
