Interpretation
- Commentary
- The inscription has been carved over a previous one which was incised in thin letters. The author has covered up the majority of the earlier inscription, but has made use of the earlier n for the first bn. It is not possible to read the earlier inscription, except for the lam auctoris which is under the ḥ of the later inscription. There are one or two letters under the ʾr of the second name and a final letter under the m of the third name.
