Two tall letters inscribed upright on the side of the pyxis, covering the entire height of the wall (length 2.9 cm). Alpha is slightly damaged by breaks on the top and the lower part of the hasta, but the reading is clear. Both TB and Morandi consider the possibility of a reading of A s as waw, but this is plausible neither linguistically nor epigraphically with regard to the dating.

at is most probably an abbreviation of a personal name, see the word page. Tibiletti Bruno classfies the inscription as that of an owner.
