KRS 2274

Text Information

Siglum
KRS 2274
Transliteration
l rġḍ bn {m}f[n][y] bn s²rk w wgm ʿl- ḥbb
Translation
By Rġḍ son of {Mfny} son of S²rk and he grieved for a friend

Interpretation

Commentary
Some hammer marks have partially covered the m, the whole of the n, and one end of the y so that only a line is visible. There is a line after the ḫ which is probably extraneous. It is possible that KRS 2274.1 is a continuation of this text.
