יועזר בר יהוסף

Yo'ezer, [son of Ye]hosef

יועזר בר יהוסף

The ossuary has low feet and traces of red wash. Lid, broken, is flat. Ornamentation consists of three metopes in a zigzag frame on the front of the chest, with triglyphs replaced by palm-tree motif. Each outer metope contains a six-petalled rosette within a whirl-rosette. In the central one, a six-petalled rosette is encircled by a palm-trunk patterned circle, with its petal tips connected by segments. יועזר is a contracted form of the name יהועזר. Klein read the second name of the inscription, Yehosef, as denoting an additional person in the ossuary, rather than as a father's name.
