Commentary

First published in Morandi 2004: 668, no. 229 A.

Image in Morandi 2004: 667, fig. 26.229 (drawing).

A single character next to a breaking edge. Morandi assumes it to be the final letter of an inscription, probably due to the slant of the hasta, but the writing direction is ultimately uncertain. How the two (potential) inscriptions on the in- and outside of the vessel relate to each other is unclear.
