Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
Corbett (2010: 308) commented: "There is at least one (and possibly two) inscription hidden behind the more recent camel and rider drawing that dominates the stone. Although some features of individual characters can be discerned (2?, h, r, k, s¹), it is impossible to determine the context or intended ordering of the letters. To the left of these characters are several other oddly positioned letters (likely l, r, m) that defy straightforward reading".
Commentary
Illegible.
