Interpretation
- Commentary
- Part of the first r is damaged and the shape of the k resembles a h with a short tail or possibly a s¹. There is a short line after the second b but it is probably a result of the scratching over the end of KRS 2054. There are two drawings of camels and it seems likely that one is by the author of KRS 2054 and the other by the author of KRS 2055, since neither of them claim bkrtn "two young she-camels".
