Interpretation

Commentary
There is later hammering after the first name and room for three letters before the ḥ of the second name. The hammering also covers the bottom half of all the letters after the m of s¹lm. The former are scratched rather than incised on to the rock and are smaller than the rest of the letters of the text.
