Interpretation

Commentary
It is not clear whether the patronym is the same person who wrote BES20 318 on the adjacent stone. Both names bhrt and rhbt have only been attested once previously and it seems possible that one of the authors mixed up the shapes of r and b. The rest of the inscription is impossible to read in the photograph. Josef Bloomfield
