Interpretation

Commentary
The second, third, and fourth letters have been joined to each other. The fourth letter looks rather like a ḫ but this is probably partly because of the extension of the lines for joining. The second n is joined to the preceding b by being attached to one arm and the letters of the second bn have been joined to form a circle. The next letter might be a g or it might be another b and n joined together to form a circle. The last two letters are inscribed in thinner lines. The first one is damaged by an abrasion but it might be a h since part of a fork seems to be visible.
