Interpretation

Commentary
The text is carved at right angles to the beginning of WH 2873.1. It was not read by WH probably because it is not visible on their photograph.

Provenance
WH Cairn 39 and this inscription were rediscovered and photographed by the Badia Epigraphic Survey in 2018 and the co-ordinates given are exact.
