Interpretation

Commentary
There is a circle scratched over the top of s² of s²ʿ, next to which appears to be a ṣ, t, and h. These letters seem to be extraneous to this inscription and have not been included in the reading. There is a vertical line next to the f of the final name. It seems unlikely that this is a l and is probably part of the cartouche that is visible on the left side of the stone. Josef Bloomfield
