Interpretation

Commentary
The beginning of the inscription is not visible in the photograph and the n of gnʾl and the following bn are faint and uncertain. The sequence ṣbḥ bn ḥy bn gnʾl bn whb occurs in KRS 1047 and 1281 but it does possible not seem possible that the last name here could be whb.
