LP 493: bn for {b}{n}
Commentary
Area H. The first 3 names are written in the 90° script. The sign(s) immediately after ḫld is on the cusp between the 90° and normal parts of the text and is obscured by later hammering. It appears to have been written as a 90° b and the following n omitted though it could be interpreted as a normal b with the n joined to the upper stroke. The h and r of s²hr are incised and the m s² and one stroke of the t of qms²t are scratched as is the “circle” of the q.
