Interpretation

Commentary
Vandalised by additions. The dots are probably forms of "joining" the letters as is the line between the lām auctoris and the next letter. This may have been a k one bar of which was extended into a circle. We suggest that the b of bn was truned into a w. Since the l's are not hooked the penultimate letter must be a r.
