Interpretation
- Commentary
- The b is written at 90° to the rest of the text. The n of hn- ʿr is absolutely clear (compare Is.H 575). See Macdonald (in press, a) for the reasons for translating ʿ(y)r in Safaitic as a hybrid, that is a "mule" (the offspring of a male donkey x female horse) or a "hinny" (the offspring of a male horse x female donkey).
