| Notes on support and decorations | The stone is very damaged at the beginning of l. 1, where the symbol is. However, it is possible to recognise the bottom part of the letter Ḫ, making thus it plausible an integration of the symbol as the Ḏ-Ḫ-monogram, royal symbol, which probably derived from the first two letters of the lineage name ḏ-Ḫll (according to W. W. Müller). |
