Popis: | A Nabataean inscription was discovered during excavations at Khirbat az-Zūna by the Regional Survey of the Wādī ath-Thamad Project in Jordan. The inscription is one of several examples of spolia found reused in the construction of the Roman castellum, although their origin remains unidentified. The inscription's position left it nearly invisible in antiquity, and it was clearly not meant to be read in its secondary context. The text is incomplete and partly illegible, but includes five lines of text mentioning five individuals; two of these are named Baṭalū, a new name in the Nabataean onomasticon. Of equal interest is a wish for the safety of a qysr, although the identity of this unnamed Caesar remains unknown. |
