{{w||setupokios}} is a dithematic masculine personal name in the nominative which is also attested on the [[NO·21.1|Briona stela]] and abbreviated in [[MI·6]]; see the word page for details. Since the grave in which the inscription was found is that of a woman, the inscription is more likely to be that of a previous owner of the vessel than to have a connection with the burial, although the similarity in application with [[TI·25]] from the same necropolis is notable. | {{w||setupokios}} is a dithematic masculine personal name in the nominative which is also attested on the [[NO·21.1|Briona stela]] and abbreviated in [[MI·6]]; see the word page for details.

Commentary
First published in Crivelli 1939: 199. Examined for LexLep on 17th October 2023.
Images in Crivelli 1939: 199, fig. 15 (drawing = Giussani 1940: 5), Tibiletti Bruno 1965c: 85 (photo and drawing), Stöckli 1975: 177, Taf. 39 (drawing), Solinas 1995: tav. LXII d and LXIV a, Morandi 1999: 166 (drawing) and 192, pl. V.1 (photo = Motta 2000: 214, fig. 22a = Morandi 2004: 784, tav. VII.24), Motta 2000: 214, fig. 22b (photo = Morandi 2004: 784, tav. VII.24).
Inscribed on the shoulder of the olla along the neck (length 7 cm); well legible. The letters are preserved on three separate fragments; only final sigma is damaged in the lower area, but a small trace indicates that it is like initial sigma rather than 
(cf. Tibiletti Bruno 1965c: 86).
setupokios is a dithematic masculine personal name in the nominative which is also attested on the Briona stela and abbreviated in MI·6; see the word page for details. Since the grave in which the inscription was found is that of a woman, the inscription is more likely to be that of a previous owner of the vessel than to have a connection with the burial, although the similarity in application with TI·25 from the same necropolis is notable.
