TEXT Jaussen & Savignac: l flḫ---- rather than s²{f}l ḫṭṭ -h. TRANSLATION ḫṭṭ, King: "[the] inscriber". DISCUSSION King (1990: 630) commented: "I have interpreted the final h as the third person suffix pronoun. I think, however, it is possible the copy is incomplete and the letter is the definite article belonging to the following word".
