Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
Macdonald & Al-Najem (2016) commented: "A very large stele (225 x 54 x 18 cm) which in 2010 was set up vertically in the Museum courtyard, but was taken down and laid flat in the courtyard in 2011, where it remained at the time of publication. Not previously published".
Commentary
Possibly a wasm at the base of the same side as the inscription It consists of (top to bottom) a Tayamanitic "l" lying on its back with the prong pointing upwards, then a (more or less) straight line then what may be a triangle though, if so, one angle is buried in the earth.
