Interpretation
- Apparatus Criticus
- WH: wtm for dtm; s¹rʾ for kbʾ; {b}{n} ngḏ for bn l{w}ḏ
- Commentary
- The initial letter of the fourth name is clearly d not w as read by WH. The penultimate name is clearly kbʾ rather than WH's s¹rʾ (compare the r of the second name). The initial letter of the last name is too long to be a n and must surely be a l. The next letter is damaged and could be either a w or a g.
