By Yṭl son of ʿmh son of Hwḥd

Language and Script
Safaitic 1

Interpretation

Commentary
The name yṭl is unattested in ANA; the first glyph could possibly be read as an elongated n, but nṭl is unattested as well. HaNS 441 read the second name as ʿmhm but there is no m on the photograph; the reading ʿmh is secure.
