Interpretation
- Commentary
- Published in Macdonald, Muʾazzin, Nehmé 1996: 444-449, as B1. See the commentary there. Each example of ʾ has one fork closed, making it look like a ṣ. The b and n of the first bn are joined as are the b and g of ʾbgr. On the element ʾrs² see Lipinski 1989. See RMenv.C 2, CSNS 661, BES17 560 and BES18 4 for other Safaitic inscriptions by people claiming to be "Nabataeans", and see the discussions in Macdonald 2009 II, 307, n. 28; 350, n. 302; 2009 IV, 185, n. 23, 186.
