Interpretation

Commentary
The third letter of the author’s name seems to have the straight vertical line of a n attached to which is the curve of a b. In this instance, it seems that the author accidentally wrote a n and corrected it to the b. The second letter of the third name looks like the top of a ḥ, but the bottom of the letter is covered by uncleared foliage. Josef Bloomfield
