Interpretation

Commentary
Both inscriptions on the stone are difficult to read due to abrasion on the surface of the stone. The beginning of this inscription cannot be read. The final clear letter is a m. Following the m, there is a small dot and part of what seems to be a vertical line that has broken away. This would give the reading of the common name Ys¹mʿl. Josef Bloomfield
