KRS 1171
Transliteration
l ẓnn bn kmd bn mġny {b}---- s²ʿhqm ----
Translation
By Ẓnn son of Kmd son of Mġny {b}---- S²ʿhqm ----

Interpretation

Commentary
There is possibly a b after the third name and then the rock is embedded in the ground and nothing can be read until the deity's name. It is possible the name s¹r should be restored after mġny as ẓnn bn kmd bn mġny bn s¹r occurs in KRS 408. There are traces of letters after s²ʿhqm but they are difficult to read on the photograph
