TEXT Harding & Littmann: ʿmmnṯt rather than ʿmmngt. DISCUSSION King (1990: 662) commented: "This text was not found. The letters after l are difficult to explain as a name. Perhaps the letters ngt should be read as a separate name and the second m as mn with an assimilated n, see Ch.3.A.5. mn been used for bn in KJC 128, see the commentary and Ch.3.A.6".
