Comment
Gender not specified.
It is uncertain whether the designation ⲣ̄ⲧⲁⲛⳟⲁⲛ ⲧⲟⲧⲗ̄ represents a title ('tot of Irtanngal'; thus Browne), Irtanmgal being a place-name, or a filiation ('son of Irtanngal'). The latter interpretation seems more probable, as Itranngal is securely attested as an anthroponym (Ref 701613) and otherwise unattested as a toponym. Cf. an analogous situation with Ngissinngal in Ref 703490.
