- MDT 9: ---- mwng bnt ʿṯrn
- Commentary
- The above is read as Hismaic. It is difficult to see from the photograph the second n read by MDT as there appears to be only the crossbar of the following t in the arms of the r. There appears to be a n the shape of a dot after the second w. The final letter is read as an ʿ as the arms appear to be enclosed although this is not entirely certain from the photograph. It is difficult to justify the reading of a further n at the end although there is a small chip which might be a letter.
