Commentary
The diplomatic reading is ]*301-WA[: both edges are broken, and no divider establishes a complete word. With *301 = NA, ]NA-WA[ is compatible with the medial root sequence of A-TA-I-*301-WA-JA, so IO Za 4 may preserve a fragment of the prayer.
Epigraphic note
HM 3779, a fragment of a libation table from the Iouktas peak sanctuary (GORILA V 22–23, "Table à libations"): ]*301-WẠ[, broken at both ends, WA dotted. *301-WA (*301 = NA) stands elsewhere only in the formula verb A-TA-I-*301-WA-JA, on IO Za 2, 3 and 7 from this sanctuary and at Kophinas, Palaikastro, Syme and Troullos, and in IO Za 8 A-NA-TI-*301-WA-JA ʿAnatī nawaya: the fragment keeps the √n-w-y core of one of these.
