Interpretation

Commentary
There is what looks like a ʿ after the b of the first bn but this is in fact the tail of the small camel and the n can be found just to the left of her front legs. The apparent y before the third name is the staff carried by the man. Only part of the first ṭ of the last word is visible in the photograph and the second ṭ was not photographed.
