97 Because of the negative meaning of despoiler, suggestion for the translation: ‘valiant pillager’ or
valiant warrior’, however, in the latter case the meaning of acquiring booty is not emphasized.
8 Suggested translation based on the reconstruction of the titles: ‘follower of the king, standard-bearer’.
