Text Information

Siglum
WH 3476
Transliteration
l {r}z}{h} bn nṣr----{b}n gm{r}
Translation
By {Rzh} son of Nṣr----{son of} {Gmr}

Interpretation

Commentary
The third letter is clearly z on the photograph. WH's reading of the second name does not seem to be confirmed on the photograph. The third name must be gmr rather than gml since the final letter has a clear hook which the lām auctoris does not.
