Just one comment on Jack's excellent message. He mentions, among other
problems, the lack of a word divider in BYTDVD ; this was discussed and
various other examples of similar usage were listed in BAR, for instance.
Another such an occurrence, not mentioned at the time, is BN'MN (Bnei
'Ammon) in the Tell Siran inscription, Basor 212.

But to return to the Jehoash inscription: not enough attention is given
to the physical report of the geologists. This seems crucial in the eyes
of some epigraphers -- if the tablet is indeed ancient,can the inscription
on it have been faked? Not according the technical reports so far.
