Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
King (1990: 241–242) commented: "The text is chipped before the n and only part of another letter remains. Perhaps a h should be restored and the name hnʾ read. After the m the rock is chipped and the remaining letters are inscribed in slightly thicker and less careful lines".
