HaNSB 123: ds²r ---- for ds²r w
Commentary
Note this is one of a handful of examples of the divine name s²ʿ-h-qm spelt s²ʿqm, see for instance KRS 56, 344, 1005, etc. The edition indicates that the final part of the inscription has been destroyed, but the photograph shows that this is not the case. There is a w after ds²r and then the stone is blank suggesting that the author was disturbed before he could complete the text.
