Interpretation

Commentary
The inscription is carved rather chaotically below AAWHA 86. There is what looks like a false start before the lām auctoris, and this and the first five letters have been lightly scratched over. The beginning of the narrative is in a damaged part of the stone and while the first and third letters of rʿy can be seen it is difficult to make out the ʿ.
