Interpretation

Commentary
Damascus Museum 25757 is a limestone tripod platter, with one leg missing. Damascus Museum 25757.1 starts to the right of the spout and runs round approximately one third of the outer edge of the platter and then runs onto the base where it ends on one side of one of the legs. The translation of qbll follows Al-Jallad 2015: 333.
