Interpretation

Commentary

There is a stray scratch before the lām auctoris. It is tempting to read the first name as d{.}ʾl, but the loop connecting to the shaft of the putative d is most likely damage. Moreover, there are only two names of this shape: ddʾl and drʾl, neither of which fits the next letter.

This is a rare instance where the author omits the word bn 'son' in his genealogy.
