1The identification of the second element of the name is not certain. Although Schott copied a PAP sign (UVB 1 pl. 28 no. 21), Marzahn notes that more can be seen than just the wedges for PAP (personal communication). He notes that although these additional marks may be just scratches, he feels that ŠEŠ is more likely than PAP.
