Interpretation

Commentary
The inscription is very lightly scratched around a scratched drawing of a camel. Upon close inspection of the photograph and having compared with previously attested genealogies (see KRS 1047), it is possible to read the text clearly. The letter b in s¹b is not visible in the photographs and is presumably on the face of the stone not visible in the photographs. Josef Bloomfield
