Commentary
This text and JaS 82.2 are written on a fragment of a dish described by JaS as being of brownish limestone. This text is written on the outside of the rim. The fragment is broken before the first r and parts of all the letters after the ḏ are missing. The first letter of the lineage name could be either an ʾ as read above or a h or a ḫ.
