Interpretation
- Commentary
- Some of the letters have been joined using lines. The initial l is attached to the m and a hammered line which obscures the following ʿ attaches the m to the l. One arm of the first b has been extended and attached to the n. One prong of the ʾ of the second name has been hammered over and the letter has been joined to the following d by further hammering. A horizontal line seems to have been attached to the second n in an attempt to join it to the previous b and there is hammering attaching it to the following s². There is a cartouche surrounding the inscription.
