What puzzles me is that the interpretation of the numbers seem to different from what was quoted here. BJ description of number 3 is seen in several sources as being number 2. I was recently visited by my Moroccan working coleagues, and they also say that the date in the inscription is 1522. Could it be that Kwait arabic variable has as a different graphism for the numbers ?Also to consider that in fact this type of digits is what Arabs call "indian numbers", as in fact they originate from Hindu numbers. In a more ortodox arabic they write numbers with wordings, not figures.
