1 The sign is |^ not ""fyj ; see also 11. 39, 44 and 48. Thus the form Armaniya does not occur in Old Persian. A natural break occurs in the rock on each side of the sign ^|. 3 The division-wedge is written at the end of 1. 35.
- The numeral is restored from the Susian version. The wedges ^.l, are visible
OP, the rock.
Auramazda brought me help; by the grace of Auramazda did my army utterly overthrow that rebel host. On the eighth clay of the month Thuravâhara the battle was fought by them.
