It is the aim to reconstruct an epigraph of high historic value. It should regulate the border protection of the Byzantine empire in the Middle East. Important problems concerning the restitution of textual gaps must be resolved as well as the manner of the inscriptions visibility at an architectural structure in Umm id-Djimal on which the inscription has been displayed until its destruction by the earthquake of 551 AD. It concerns basic research for a philological and historical analysis of the material. The cooperation partner Denis Feissel (Paris), the philological scholar dealing with this inscription, got acquainted with the site of provenance only by a short stay at Jordan in December 2013. For this reason, he strongly relies on the cooperation with an archaeologist knowing the place. A large number of inscriptional ashlars had been re-cut along their borders by the masons for their recycling as spoils in the Qasr al-Hallabat. For this reason, the flow of the text is interrupted at many points. An additional problem is due to the fact, that some of the measure data documented by the American epigraphists or by the bequest of the late Marcillet-Jaubert proved to be wrong. The resulting textual lacunae and distortions can only be corrected by a precise re-measurement of letters and their distances on the original blocks. Basing on exact casts considerable portions of the text in section I (part 1, lines 1-101) have been already firmly retrieved. By the thorough examination of the surfaces in the vertical joints of the inscription blocks it was further stated that the inscription was intersected on the original building of display by a window or a doorway. Such specific investigations in three dimensions cannot be undertaken on the basis of photographs. Only exact casts of the original inscription blocks which are dispersed today over different locations may lead in their assemblage to conclusive results by comparative study in three dimensions. In order to examine Sections I (part 2, lines 102-136) and II by the described method, 30 blocks need to be copied by silicon moulds and casts. The intended examination of three dump heaps which were carelessly accumulated in 2006 by bulldozing, may produce further not yet known blocks and adjoining fragments.

重建具有很高历史价值的铭文是其目的。它应该规范拜占庭帝国在中东的边境保护。必须解决有关恢复文本空白的重要问题，以及在乌姆米德-贾马尔的一个建筑结构上的铭文可见性的方式，该铭文一直显示在该建筑结构上，直到公元551年被地震摧毁。它涉及对材料进行语言学和历史分析的基础研究。合作伙伴Denis Feissel（巴黎）是研究这一铭文的语言学学者，他在2013年12月在约旦短暂停留后才熟悉了这一遗址的出处。出于这个原因，他强烈依赖于与了解这个地方的考古学家的合作。泥瓦匠沿着边界重新切割了大量的刻字石碑，以便在Qasr al-Hallabat作为战利品回收。由于这个原因，文本的流程在许多地方被打断了。另一个问题是，美国铭文学家记录的一些测量数据或已故的马西莱-乔伯特遗赠的数据被证明是错误的。由此产生的文字空白和扭曲只能通过精确地重新测量字母及其在原始块上的距离来纠正。基于精确的类型转换，第1节（第1部分，第1-101行）中的相当一部分文本已经得到了准确的检索。通过对铭文块垂直接缝表面的彻底检查，进一步表明铭文是通过窗户或门口在原始建筑上交叉展示的。这种三维的具体调查不能以照片为基础进行。只有分散在不同地点的原始铭文块的精确模型才能通过三维比较研究得出结论性的结果。为了用上述方法检查第1节（第2部分，第102-136行）和第2节，需要用硅模具和铸件复制30个块。本署拟对2006年以推土方式随意堆积的三个堆进行检查，可能会产生更多未知的堆块和邻近的碎片。
