Interpretation

Commentary
The letter read as ṯ is partially covered by the letters of KRS 309 and is restored on the basis of the context in which it occurs. It is possible there are two ʿs after then s² but one of the small circles seems much fainter than the rest of the text. Translation as in Al-Jallad 2015: 98.
