Textual Notes
Moore
1. ⸢ת⸣חרת בר ית⸢מ⸣א (Aramaic)
2. ([...])ובסת (Phoenician)
There is some doubt that the second line is Aramaic. It may be Phoenician.
The first name is Aramaic because of בר (not בנ). The final א is very distinctive.
The second to last letter of the second name is certainly a Phoenician ס.
