Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
Corbett (2010: 299) commented: "This inscription is carved in a circular direction on a small stone of similar dimensions. It appears that at least part of the stone has broken off near the beginning and end of the inscription, resulting in the loss of the initial l and partial loss of the following m and final l. Later carvings also obscure the reading of some characters, but the readings are clear".
