Interpretation

Commentary
The inscription runs horizontally along the upper edge of the stone. Only the first name and the bn can be read clearly. The inscription could continue along the edge of the stone, run on to the hidden face of the stone, or perhaps curve downwards and continue vertically. A number of letters can be read vertically from below the first letter after bn, such as ʿ t b {d}, but one cannot make sense of them.
