Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
Macdonald & Al-Najem (2016) commented: "A large stone (108 x 34 x 17 cm) with one edge curving which was in the Museum courtyard in 2010 but by 2012 had disappeared. The surface is very pitted and damaged and, although it looks as though there were once several lines of text, only a few letters can be made out. Not previously published".
Commentary
We are unable to offer a satisfactory interpretation.
