Interpretation

Commentary
The letters have been vandalised and it is extremely difficult to be sure of anything. The first b has a short line inside one arm which was probably added later. The following letter has the apparance of a w but it is possible it was originally a r. The letter or letters after the second b are illegible and it is likely that the text continues on another face of the rock which was not photographed.
