- Thamudic B
Interpretation
- Commentary
- The text which is in Thamudic B is carved below the drawing. The claim to h-s¹fr w h– frs¹ is unusual. The forms of the l, s¹ and f are typical of Thamudic B but are also found occasionally in Safaitic.
- Associated Drawings
- SESP95 RD 18: A man on an equid waving a stick or very short spear and a man in front of it holding it by a rope to its nose in his right hand and waving a stick in his left. Above the equid a felid and an oryx.
