Interpretation

Commentary
The text is incised in very small letters and some of them are too small in the photograph to be read with any certainty. The middle prong of the letter read as ḥ is shorter and thinner than the other lines and it is possible the letter should be read as a s¹. The seventh letter might be a natural line in the rock. The text might be unfinished but it is possible there are further letters written in very faint lines and maybe a n and a y should be read after the f.
