Brown translates the phrase ⲭⲁⲏⲗ· ⲥⲟⳟⲟⳝⲁⲛ ⲁⲥ ⲃ̄ⲗⲟ as 'the 2nd daughter of Chael Songoja'. If he is right, his first daughter would be Ionngoka mentioned in previous line, before her son Douriketil and her anonymous daughter. In this case, this Chael Songoja is identical with the father of Ionngoka known from DBMNT 585 and 586 (Refs 702074 and 701626).
