Interpretation
- Commentary
- If this is indeed the Safaitic alphabet as the original editor supposed the way the letters after ḏ are distributed on the rock is extremely haphazard at least on the copy and the order in which the original editor placed them seems to have no particular justification. We shall have to hope that the photographs will one day become available.
