The Sidonian obelisk inscription is dedicated to the god Shalāmān by a high official, whose title seems to refer to the Phoenician area to the south of the Nahr el-Kebīr. It qualifies him as the prefect or sub-prefect of the province Beyond-Safita, which is the name of an important strategic site north of the river. |
