Interpretation

Commentary

The outer (left) line of of the m is wide and looks like a separate lettter but can be seen to be joined to the right-hand line at the top. A name qdmʾ has not been found before and so it is possible that the inscription is unfinished and that the name was intended to be Qdmʾl.
