TEXT


   1  Bʿṯtr bn B↯ʿlyfʿ ḏ-ʿgzn ʿbd S¹m↯hʾmr hqny Y↯dʿ

Apparatus
1According to the editor, on the basis of the comparison of this text with YM 11231 and 29938, Ydʿ is probably the short form of Ydʿs¹mh. One may wonder if there were some more letters below the last part of the inscribed line, where the plaque seems to be damaged, completing the name of the god.

TRANSLATIONS

English

   1  Bʿṯtr son of Bʿlyfʿ ḏ-ʿgzn servant of S¹mhʾmr dedicated to Ydʿ.
