- By Zḥk ----d son of Zḥk son of S²mʿr
Interpretation
- Commentary
- The inscription after the first name is very faint and damaged but there is sufficient space for two names. The names zḥk bn ms²ʿr occur in KRS 1161, 2817, 2818, and 2819 and it seems possible that s²mʿr here is metathesis for ms²ʿr.
