Interpretation
- Commentary
- The inscription is very faint on the stone, so the reading is based on the enhanced photograph. The genealogy mʿly bn yṯʿt bn nl has been attested three times previously (KRS 1917, 1919; C 1410). Much of the inscription at the top of the stone is impossible to read and readings of possible letters are offered tentatively. Josef Bloomfield
