The fragment "appears to have been the top of a slender pillar stone".

N | ...a/i]DUBI[b/n
The inscription is on two angles, the first one showing but an n with "indefinite traces of vowel points" before. On the second angle, the "last point of the i and the top of the following b-score" were "carried away" by a "fresh-looking fracture". This might be the "last dot of maqi, fowllowed by a name commencing Dubi-."

Reading Macalister, CIIC:

DUBE[B?] | Q/N
DUBE[B?] is preceded by the last notch of a vowel. On the other angle, there are five scores to be read either as a Q or as a N.
