Commentary

First published in Barelli 1879: 17/Garovaglio 1879. Examined for LexLep on 2nd April 2025.

Images in Barelli 1879/Garovaglio 1879: tav. II.c (drawing = Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 278, tav. VI.8a), Rhŷs 1914: pl. III (photo), Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 278, tav. VI.8b (photo = Morandi 2004: 800, tav. XXIII.160), Morandi 2004: 628, fig. 20.160 (drawing).

Inscribed on the inside of the patera across originally two fragments. The upper frameline and a short segment of the lower one are preserved; the lower parts of all letters are missing. The larger fragment, which is still preserved, was seen in the museum by Rhŷs 1913: 39, III.1.3, who could not quite make a reading; Rhŷs 1914: 9 f. tried an upside-down dextroverse reading ]rkiumu[ with inverted mu. Whatmough PID: 102, no. 295 tentatively suggested an upright sinistroverse reading ]rḳịmu[ (also Solinas), but called the segmentation of the group of lines after rho as ki "at least doubtful", and "the whole [...] altogether problematical, though it can hardly be mere ornamentation". Referring to Garovaglio's drawing of both fragments, the smaller of which is lost, Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 189 f., no. 8 added a iota at the end ()rkimui), despite the line being decidedly oblique (also Tibiletti Bruno 1978: 147, 1990b: 109 f.). Lejeune 1971: 72 f., n. 251, noting a short oblique trace in the upper area before rho (which has today chipped off), infers upsilon (]ụrkimu[i], cf. Morandi ]?rkimu[, who prefers epsilon to compare bergimus). The unidentifiable letter after rho (cf. CO·14) together with the uninterrupted zig-zag (cf. NO·1 and, with Whatmough, TI·1) make the inscription somewhat dubious – possibly pseudo-script? But cf. TI·34.3 ]rkomui.
