Interpretation

Commentary
Unfortunately, there does not seem to be a closeup photograph of this inscription, therefore the reading of the patronym cannot be certain. The second letter of the patronym seems to be a h, but may be a ṣ if the letter’s circle is concealed by damage and not visible in the photograph. Josef Bloomfield
