Interpretation

- The reading of the k in the first name is only tentative. Additionally, there is a space between the w and the proposed k, making it possible there might have been another letter there that is no longer legible. If this is in fact a k, then it is of a different shape than the proposed k in the second name. A faint ḫ and t can be seen on the bottom face of the rock but appear unconnected with this inscription
