Commentary
The h is restored in the first name on the basis of the names occurring in NSR 102. The last letter of the fourth name is partly covered by hammering. The ḍ in the name is a grid unlike the majority of ḍ's in other texts of this collection which are two concentric circles or a circle with a dot in the middle.
