Josef Bloomfield

Interpretation

Commentary
The author seems to have confused letter shapes, such as the r and b, which makes it difficult to make sense of the inscription. None of the names in the reading have been attested previously. BES20 1492 starts immediately to the right of the final letter in this inscription. Josef Bloomfield
