Commentary
This text is beside SIJ 71 (see SIJ pl. I photo A. 1893). The author appears to have written and then erased a letter (probably ġ) before the beginning of the last name. The content of the text is identical (apart from the erasure) with that of SIJ 70 which is on a different rock next to SIJ 69 (see photo Winn H5 II/19).
