1 Reconstruction by J. Moje. 2 Devauchelle reads here mı͗-nn „entitled likewise“, but this makes no sense here. His parallels mentioned p. 60 note to l. 3 also show in my opinion not mı͗-nn, but also n-dr.tr or sẖ „Issued/ Countersigned“. 3 Reading J. Moje. The publication of Devauchelle gives Pꜣ-ḏı͗-Ḥr-pꜣ-ẖrd. |
