Siglum
WH 2476
Transliteration
l {q}dm bn {ʾ}{ḫ}wf
Translation
By {Qdm} son of {ʾḫwf}

Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
WH: qdmt for {q}dm
Commentary
There is no t after {q}dm. WH seems to have read qdmt to make this text fit the genealogy on p. 370 where there is a qdmt bn ʾḫwf.

Provenance
WH Cairn 34 and this inscription were rediscovered and photographed by the Badia Epigraphic Survey in 2018 and the co-ordinates given are exact.
