Interpretation
- Commentary
- It is not possible to read the genealogy in the photographs. The inscription seems to start in an area with heavy abrasion and could possibly begin on another face of the stone. The final word of the inscription is difficult to make sense of. Given the context, one would expect the noun s¹fr, the writing. The penultimate letter is clearly a s¹. Following the s¹, there is a thick line that could possibly be a f. The letter seems to curve very slightly in the centre and at the bottom. If this is to be read as a f, the author seems to have left out the final r.
