Interpretation

Commentary
The second letter of the second name is obscured by an abrasion. Only a line and a fork of the first letter of the penultimate name is visible but it is most likely it should be read as a ṣ. The beginning of the inscription is outside the cartouche which surrounds part of KRS 473 KRS 474 and KRS 476-479.
