Interpretation

Commentary: As with KRS 2376 the letters have been joined together and possibly changed making the reading difficult. The third letter has the appearance of a ṯ but it seems likely that one of the hammered dots was used to join the letter to the second arm of the preceding letter. The first n is joined to one arm of the preceding b and then by a small curve to the second n. There is a line going from the second n through the t and through the next letter which might be a another n. The third b and n have been joined together to form a circle. The following letter is very difficult to interpret. It might have been a s¹ but there is possibly a y inscribed over it. The following b and n have been joined into a circle. The fork of the third letter from the end is doubtful and it could just be an attempt at joining in which case the letter would appear to be a y.
