Text Information

Siglum
KRS 463
Transliteration
l ʿdy bn m{w}z
Translation
By ʿdy son of {Mwz}

Interpretation

Commentary
The second letter of the second name is obscured by later abrasions and could be a ʿ or a w. We have chosen w on the basis of the patronym in KRS 464. There is also a diagonal line which looks intentional between the m and the z.
