71:23

وَقَالُوا۟ لَا تَذَرُنَّ ءَالِهَتَكُمْ وَلَا تَذَرُنَّ وَدًّا وَلَا سُوَاعًا وَلَا يَغُوثَ وَيَعُوقَ وَنَسْرًا

Why this meaning was chosen

The sole unrooted proper name occurs in a coordinated list of deities that Noah's people urge one another not to abandon. The artifact records only that Quranic relation and adds no external identity or history.
