- Commentary
- The beginning of the inscription is damaged. No initial l is visible and the first letter read is a circle but no crossbar is visible. The first letterof the second name is a different shape to the previous h in the text and it seems unlikely it should be read as a such. It is a short straight line with a horizontal line sticking out. It could be a d or possibly a ẓ in the Hismaic form of that letter. The third letter of the name is a line with a hook. The previous l does not have a hook and it seems most likely the letter should be read as a r.
