Interpretation

Commentary
The inscription is difficult to read in the two available photographs. The final name is very uncertain and is unattested. The first letter seems to be formed a long vertical line and perhaps has a hook or leg at the bottom, so may be a l, y,or h. The second letter seems to be either a large h or a ḏ.
