Commentary
WH did not publish a facsimile. This reading is taken from the photographs by Geraldine King (colour) and Michael Macdonald (black-and-white). The inscription has been hammered over. The second letter has been altered and originally may have been a ṣ or a ʾ. WH read the fourth letter as a b but it is quite different from the b of the bn which follows it and is more likely to be a r.
