Interpretation

Commentary
It is possible the second letter of the fourth name should be emended to a w and the name read as s¹wr. An ʾʿdg bn nqm bn s¹wr occurs in KRS 859. The n after the fourth b is faint and it is possible the following letter should be read as a ṣ. There are traces of letters after the second s¹ and it is possible the inscription continues on another face of the rock which was not photographed.
