Interpretation

Commentary
The inscription is carved diagonally in the top right-hand corner of the stone (on the photograph).

Associated Drawings
After the last letter there is a diagonal vertical line, at right angles to the text, with at the top end 4 lines and at the bottom 3 lines, in each case the outer lines curving to join at the ends. It is unknown whether the fact that these add up to 7 is significant. To the left of the beginning of the text there are two other diagonal lines one with apparently on 4 lines at the end and the other with 4 in the middle and 2 at the top end.
