Description

This stone stands 0.99m high and is c. 0.33m wide and 0.22m in depth. The inscription runs along both angles of the S face and reads (unusually, down dexter – up sinister): DUBONIRRAS MAQQI TENAC(I). The final 2 letters are damaged and Macalister (1945, 144-5, no. 148) stated that 'C is faint but traceable' and I is purely conjectural. (Cuppage 1986, no. 792 (No. 2))
