Interpretation

Commentary
The reading of this inscription is rather tentative. It is difficult to make sense of the direction the inscription is running in and consequently, the names may not be accurate. Additionally, a number of the letters could reasonably be a range of other letters. A name Nyml has never previously been found. Josef Bloomfield
