| Notes on support and decorations | The offering table is decorated with 7 ibexes. According to Agostini 2021 a, the monogram should be resolved as Bʿṯtr. However, this seems to be the same monogram as the one decorating the other offering tables of the temple, Y.04.B.B.11 and Y.05.B.B.1, which has been associated to the Ġzr family. |
