Interpretation

Commentary
Area A. All the letters of the text are scratched except for the h which is scraped. Considering this difference of technique and the fact that the h is very close to the ʿ it is probable that it was inserted after ʿyl was written. The text is enclosed in a thinly scratched cartouche. After the end of the text outside the cartouche there are several scratched lines forming an unidentifiable drawing.
