Interpretation

Commentary
The last part of the inscription is written on the edge of the rock and was inadequately photographed. It is possible that the last name should be restored as ʿwḏ on the basis of the genealogy in KRS 2363 where unfortunately the name before is also missing from the photograph. The inscription probably continues on another face of the rock which was not photographed.
