KRS 2291

Text Information

Siglum
KRS 2291
Transliteration
{l} ----bd bn mṭl
Translation
{By} ----bd son of Mṭl

Interpretation

Commentary
The initial l is rather doubtful as it is inscribed at a strange angle. It is difficult to read the letters before the b as they are rather damaged. This inscription and KRS 2290 and 2292 might be on the same rock as KRS 2288-2289.
