Commentary
Associated drawing to be numbered. The bn's of the text have been changed to w's by the addition of lines which are clearly shallower than other lines of the text. l and m have been repeated after s¹lm. The line read as l in the deity's name is rather short and resembles a n. The n of the last word is attached to the s². There are light scratches over the end of the inscription.
