ΟραΑος [’Α]κτβαου.
i. e. Wurail, {soil) of Actaeus.
In an inscription reading Ανααος OpatXou, copied by Savignac and Abel at Kharaba
(see R.B. 11 (1905), p. 603, no. 15), Clermont-Ganneau {R.A.O. vii (1906), p. 181)
proposed to read Αναμος [ijopatXou, suggesting a like correction of Wad. 22030/ = Wetz.
no. 15 ύπερ σωτηρίας Οραιλου. The name Σοραιλος occurs in Wad. 2181.
Our stele establishes the name Οραιλος, as there can be no reasonable doubt that
only half of the first letter in each line is wanting. The name should, therefore, be
kept in Wad. 2203^, and might reasonably be retained in the stone at Kharaba,
although the space between the two names suggests the possibility that a letter has
been omitted. The Semitic forms of Ορα,ιλος are well established; see Lidzbarski, Eph.
n, P· 335· Οραλος, of which this name is a diminutive, occurs in no. 460.
3061. Stele. Found lying on the ground in the open space outside the house
