A Proposal to Read the Legend of a Seal-Amulet from Deir Rifa, Egypt as an Early West Semitic Alphabetic Inscription

The legend of a seal-amulet, UC 51354, from Deir Rifa, Egypt remains unclassified. Here the case is made that it is written in Proto-Canaanite alphabetic script and reads as a short West Semitic text indicating the name and title of its owner.
