Interpretation
- Commentary
- There is a hammered line across the the lower part of the g. The final letter is hooked and appears to have a hammered lower arm giving it the appearance of a r. It seems most likely however that the hammering is incidental and the letter should be read as a l. There is a t at the end which has been read with KWQ 111.
