Interpretation

Commentary
Inscribed in small letters to the right of KRS 686. The beginning of the text is covered by the first part of KRS 686. The ḥ is uncertain as the ends of the prongs are covered by hammering and so it is impossible to see whether they are joined, so forming a w. Only part of the first r is visible and the first ʿ is partly covered by an abrasion. The final r is rather worn and no further letters are visible.
