Commentary
It is difficult to know how to read the inscription. The letters bn ṣlḥ bn {q}lmt are written at right angles to the rest of the text and it seems likely that it is part of the genealogy which was added later. The letters fmbnyṭrdbmrʿd are more likely to be a statment rather than part of the genealogy.
