Interpretation

Commentary
No letter is visible in the space between the r of the second name and the following bn. The third name was read on the stone as unquestionably ʾlṭ andit was noted that the line which appears to join the tops of the ʾ and the l of this name is a recent abrasion. The name ʾlṭ is unattested but cf. Ar. ʾlaṭṭ “toothless”.
