Pedigree posssibility 1:
(grand) father Azimilk
                |
daughter Arisju (and mother of:)
                |
daughter Abibaal

This time the feminin line in the pedigree is followed!

Pedigree possibility 2:
father Azimilk x mother Arisju
                         |
          daughter Abibaal

However, it is normal when in the inscription the father and mother are mentioned as a married couple and this is here not the case.
