Commentary
Reading uncertain, see the inscription page.
If correct, the form is an ā-stem personal name in the dative; apart from arimanus (AcS I: 215, probably a variant of ariomanus, see Meid 2005: 146–148), of which it could conceivably be a hypocorism, the only available comparandum is unclear RIG M-46 arimuṣ. See also Salomon 2024: 166.
