Manning/Moore/19991, 10-11: `It is difficult to be certain whether any letters existed before the N for, while slight flaking of the face may have occurred after the carving of the inscription, the edge here is not badly damaged. There is evidence of more serious damage after the V where a large flake was removed off the edge, probably destroying a number of letters. A possible partial reconstruction would be NAD AV[I] - . NAD appears as the first component of some names such as Nad Fraich'.
