Interpretation

Commentary
This text was published as WH 3775 a. The inscription is incised in very small letters between the third and eighth letters of WH 3774. The n of bn has been scratched over but is still visible. WH 3775.1 starts immediately after the s² with no room for any other letters in WH 3775. It is possible that the same author carved WH 3775 and 3775.1 when he realised that he had omitted the ḥ before the s² in the former he recarved the whole inscription as WH 3775.1
