Translation
By Ḫl son of M---- son of Ḥll---- is [the drawing of] the young she-camel

Interpretation

Commentary
The letters after the m are covered by shading and abrasions. The second bn is written between the legs of the camel. There might be a further letter after the third l but there is an abrasion and it is difficult to be certain.
