Interpretation
- Commentary
- The first s¹ is rather faint. There is possibly a n after the third b and perhaps the name should be read as ʿbnṭ. However, it seems more likely that the apparent n is incidental and that the name is ʿbṭ. The t of the word s¹nt has been left out and is written slightly above the q.
