Interpretation
- Commentary
- The passage bn tm w ndm is on an adjacent face and cannot be seen on the photograph. After ʾḥ there is at least one letter (read by Winnett as d) on the same line and an unknown number of letters on the line below. Winnett read the last of these as r s¹ but though r is a plausible reading on the photograph it is difficult to see the s¹.
