Interpretation
- Commentary
- The third letter has a slight prong probably because the lines used to inscribe the letter do not overlap. The beginning of the fifth name is covered by an encrustation on the rock and the letters of the end are faint and carelessly written. The letters between the first w and the curse are covered by the encrustation.
