Messod Abourmad

Read by Claude Opus 5 (own eyes, project OCR_SYSTEM_PROMPT, no Gemini) | legibility=poor confidence=low needs_expert_review=True | obstacles: grey slate tablet cemented into the head of a plain cement ledger tomb, four lines: פ"נ, the name line, a date line, then ת נ צ ב ה; the tablet's upper edge is broken away and a patch of lime splash sits across the middle of the lower two lines, taking out part of the date; the given name reads מסעו | Source: darkroom_batch_read_2026_08_09_taroudant | Photo: TRD_SEBAT_p1030170-web.jpg [Adjudication 09/08/2026, second independent reading of the same photograph] NAME, SEX AND SURNAME CORRECTED. The first reading gave 'מסעודה, female, surname refused'. At 12x the given name is five glyphs ending in dalet, מסעוד (Messod, male), not the six ending in he that מסעודה needs; and the second word IS resolvable, אבורמאד, seven glyphs. Sebat's index card reads ABOURMAD Messod, male. The record had NO surname and NO phonetic_index, so it was unreachable by any family search; phonetic_index ABRMD assigned via phonetic_normalizer.get_or_create_phonetic_index, the same value carried by 11985, 52140 and 52141. NOTE: this is a MODERN replacement plaque, so אבורמאד is a restorer's spelling; the 1955 family stone carves אבירמאט (root ABRMT). Do not merge the two roots on the strength of this plaque.
