Interpretation
- Commentary
- ʾ{ġ}r: The second letter looks very much like a double-lined ġ. It is possible that the letter was intended to be a m and the author did not join the ends. Nevertheless, the name ʾġr has been attested previously.
- Associated Drawings
- Drawing of a young she-camel (bkrt) as referred to in the inscription. The animal has a broad band girth. Its tail seems to be hanging straight down. The hump is much further back than is usually depicted.
