- l qym bn mrʾ bn ẓnnʾl
- Translation
- By Qym son of Mrʾ son of Ẓnnʾl
Interpretation
- Commentary
- The m of qym resembles a g, clearly differing in shape from the same letter in mrʾ. At the end of the inscription, there are three marks that resemble bn r. This might mean that the inscription was left unfinished, nevertheless they could reasonably be interpreted as unrelated marks on the stone or errors by the author.
