- Formatting remarks
- The last two lines were squeezed into the remaining space on the reverse and lower edge. Above the date 1,5 line was erased. Perhaps the scribe made a mistake and decided to rewrite the correct line under the date (which was possibly written earlier, while the clay was fresher).
