Interpretation

Commentary
Curiously, it appears that this text and WH 3780 are on the same stone. There are letters on a face between those on which WH 3772 and 3780 are carved but it is difficult to make sense of them.

Provenance
WH Cairn 46 and this inscription were rediscovered and photographed by the Badia Epigraphic Survey in 2018 and the co-ordinates given are exact.
