BES20 262

Interpretation

Commentary: The stone bears three inscriptions, two of which are contained within a cartouche (BES20 261, 262). The direction of BES20 262 seems like it should continue from the t of {kmt} to the long straight letter directly to its right that has been interpreted as being part of BES20 261. BES20 262 seems to continue above the t of {kmt} with the b of bn. {k}mt: Following the lām auctoris, there is a circular shape that resembles an ʿ, nevertheless this seems to be damage. To the right of the damage there is a slightly curved line covered by damage that seems to resemble a k. ḥy{r}n: The r lacks a bottom hook, resembling a l with curved top.
