Commentary
Images in Negroni Catacchio 1974: tav. IV.16 bis (drawing), Tibiletti Bruno 1974: 270, fig. 5 (photo and drawing), Solinas 1995: 341 (drawing).
Inscribed on the bottom of the patera near the rim, not upside-down (length 1.8 cm). Possibly, but not certainly incomplete in the beginning; first letter damaged by break. Read tak or maybe tek (complete) by Tibiletti Bruno 1974: 270 f. (also Morandi 2004 tek); Solinas 1995: 341 has ]·ek, considering the first letter illegible, but with a surprise punct.
