- Commentary
- The reading is very doubtful after the first name. The author has a dot for the first n but it is not legible on the photograph. The first letter of the second name appears to have a loop at one end and might be a ṣ or possibly a ṯ. The crossbar of the following t could be part of a cartouche and it is possible the letter should be read as a n. The next letter is rather far away from the preceding one. There seems to be no justification from either the photograph or copy to restore a k in the third name.
