Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
AKSD: treats the text as complete and reads ʿḏrlh for ----{ḏ}{r}lh.
Commentary
On a slab of limestone. The stone has been broken across the middle and the two sections were registered separately. What remains of the inscription starts on the very edge of a break and part of a letter can be seen on the break but it is too uncertain to restore. It is not certain how much has been lost. The ḏ has rather a short tail.
