Textual Notes
I assume that this sherd represents to compositional acts. The first was a name list written cc > cv, then cc was erased and two new names were written on it. The names on cv appear to have never been erased. The relationship, if any, between the two compositional acts is unclear. cv 2 an illegible word follows the name. No other name appears to have a word after it. [old note: Moore cv pal <note>At least 5 lines of palimpsest continuing left of the overwritten text.</note>] cc Lozachmeur 1. גדול בר משלמ
