Interpretation

Commentary
The stone seems to be broken on the right side, so the beginning of the narrative is missing. The first letter of the narrative seems to be a g or w. There are a number of letters at the bottom of the stone, that do not seem to be part of the inscription (s¹s¹ʾs²{ẓ}). Josef Bloomfield
