| Notes on support and decorations | This is the first inscription commissioned by a member of the Yzʾn clan which is written on a stone block. In fact, all the other texts are engraved on rocks. The last monogram on the left is read by Mẓller as Rṯḥm. It could also be read Mrṯdʾln. The Yazanite monograms usually bear the first letters of the name. |
