古ザクセン語
Düwel and Gebühr (1981) suggest that the inscription contains four runes, reading (left to right) hiwi, which they interpret as meaning "for the spouse" or "mater familias". Attested cognates and related words would include: Old Saxon and Old High German "hīwa", "spouse"; Old Saxon and Old High German "hīwiski", "family"; Old Saxon "hīwian" and Old High German "hīwan", "to marry"; Gothic "heiwa-" in "heiwa-frauja", "master of the house" or "husband".
