1 This is an correction, where the suffix =s is written directly behind the =f. The latter was written just by habituality (so Devauchelle, Didier. O. Louvre Dem. (1983), 85 no. 284), and was not wiped out. 2 The name of the father was doubtful to Devauchelle, Didier. O. Louvre Dem. (1983), 85, pl. XLII no. 284, who suggests Nḫt or Pa-H̱nm. The latter can be confirmed due to infra-red image. |
