Notes on support and decorationsOn the right side, the remains of a relief are visible; according to Garbini, it could be a snake, the sacred animal of Wd.
According to Grjaznevič, on the basis of the height of the letters, in ancient times the stone was part of the same building. Therefore, the inscription would have been originally a monumental inscription.
