TEXT Harding & Littmann: rs¹m bn s¹ḥm for rkb bn kḥm. DISCUSSION King (1990: 652) commented: "Jamme 1974: 139 is right in reading the second letter as a r and the seventh as k. The fourth letter is a b but has the appearance of a m because the hook of the l of TIJ 18d (...) is inscribed between the arms".
