Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
TEXT Harding & Littmann: zky rather than zhy. DISCUSSION King (1990: 650–651) commented: "The first name is read zky in TIJ, although the second letter, from the field copy and my photograph, is more probably a h here and in TIJ 48. The text is on the same face as TIJ 3 and 5".
