Interpretation

Commentary
The last four letters which are lightly scratched on to the rock are difficult to make out on the photograph and no reading can be certain. The fourth letter from the end might be a ḥ or a w. The tops of the next three letter are not visible. The third letter from the end might be a l the penultimate letter might be an ʾ, ṣ, or h and the last letter might be a l, r or possibly a s¹.
