Inscriptions on Naqada III and Early Dynastic vessels

Already in Naqada III ('Dynasty 0') there are pottery vessels with the Horus name of a king and a short inscription. The Horus name and the interpretation of the inscription is often difficult, but may have something to do with delivering food/good to the cult of the king identified by Horus name.
