Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
WH: krh for {b}r{y}
Commentary
The text is carved in small thinly scratched letters beside the first line of WH 2426. It is not possible to read the first letter of the third name as k. It is clearly a b back-to-front, perhaps making a pattern with the preceding b n (?). The third letter of the name is probably a y.
