Interpretation

Commentary
{b}{n}: The two letters are possible joined at the bottom and resemble a m or g. A name of Hʿwḏm or Hʿwḏg would be unlikely. {ṯ}----: Following bn, there is an area of damage. A letter that seems to be a vertical line with a circle on one side is visible through the abrasion. Any letters that follow it are illegible.
