Interpretation
- Commentary
- Several letters of the text have been altered. The second letter is most probably an ʿ. There is a dot and lines have been added on either side. A tail has been added to the following b forming a k and a circle has been added around the t. There is a short line next to the letter. A middle line has been added to the next b to form a ḥ. A dot has been hammered on to one arm of the r and the following b and n have been joined together to form a shape that resembles m or g. The cross bar of the z has been hammered over. There are two lines to the right of the inscription.
