Interpretation

Commentary

The name mkbl bn ḍhd bn ʿbṭ reoccurs in several genealogies, and so it is tempting to restore the effaced portion after b and terminating possibly in as ʿbṭ. The meets what appears to be the remnants of another text, here running in the opposite direction reading s¹ bḫ n or l.
