The inscription provides the date as the year 284 in the month of Panemos according to the Era of the Province of Arabia, that is, between June 20, 389 and July 19, 389. The tombstone is one of about 700 discovered in Byzantine Zoora. The majority of the Greek tombstones from this location have been identified as Christian. The tombstone, which is rectangular and chipped all around, is broken at the lower right corner. The inscribed surface is flaked off at the edges. Both the text and decoration of the tombstone are engraved and painted over in red. A coarsely engraved frame surrounds the inscription. The right and left sides of this frame are decorated with oblique lines, perhaps imitating palm branches. Several figures appear within the frame and above or below the text. An outlined, deeply engraved cross with four dots at its corners appears above the text. A vault covers this cross, and two vertical palm branches stand on the sloping sides of the vault. Below the text, a thicker outlined cross is flanked by two cross-rho figures. Another cross-rho figure appears at the end of line ten. Aside from a few square ο, σ, and θ letters, the script is round. The text contains both spelling and grammatical errors. A small diagonal line is attached to the letter ε in the word ἔτε in line seven although the word is not abbreviated. A wavy horizontal bar appears above the age numeral and year numeral in lines seven and eight, respectively. The personal name Ἀμάθησος is new to Palestine and Arabia and may reflect a Semitic compound name with the elements "female servant" and the root "to save, to help." The author notes that the formula ἀποθανόντος ἐν ὁσιότητι is also found in Zoor0022.
