Inscriptions can be blurred on monuments due to several factors :s
- Chemical weathering in which acid rain containing carbonic acid, sulphurous acid or nitrous acid chemically attacks the stone
- Thermal damage from hot sunlight
- Frost damage from water entering and freezing in small cracks
- Physical erosion from sand and dust blown at the surface
- Physical erosion from passersby touching the inscription

Which is harder limestone or clay?
Limestone would be potentially harder until the clay is fired. The problem we have here is that "clay" is an ambiguous term. There is no homogenous or standard formula for clay. However, clays can generally be formed and baked to become set and hard. This is called firing. Fired clay tends to be quite hard, and depending on the formula, might be harder than limestone.

What would likely cause an inscription on a marble gravestone to become more difficult to read overtime?
Weathering and erosion from exposure to the elements, such as rain, wind, and UV rays, can cause the inscription on a marble gravestone to fade and wear down over time. Additionally, the growth of moss, lichen, and other organisms on the surface of the marble can obscure the inscription and make it harder to read.
