Interpretation

Commentary
WH seem to have confused this text with 3795.1 (which has the same genealogy), which they therefore did not read. See the Commentary under WH 3795.1.

Provenance
WH Cairn 47 and this inscription were rediscovered and photographed by the Badia Epigraphic Survey in 2018 and the co-ordinates given are exact.
