Interpretation

Commentary
The first letter has a hammered dot for the loop and a hammer mark joining it to the next letter although it is not altogether clear whether or not the join was intentional. The loop of the third letter is not joined and it is possible it should be read as an ʾ. The inscription appears to be unfinished.
