Inscribed in a single line within a frame running from bottom to top (length 82 cm). Though the stone appears to be broken on top, the inscription seems to be complete (pace {{bib|Tibiletti Bruno 1975}}: 53), as no traces of a word divider can be seen on the intact surface above final iota. The usual {{w||pala}} is thus not part of the text; the inscription consists in the name of the deceased (individual name + patronym) in the dative.

Inscribed in a single line within a frame running from bottom to top (length 82 cm). Though the stone appears to be broken on top, the inscription seems to be complete (pace Tibiletti Bruno 1975: 53), as no traces of a word divider can be seen on the intact surface above final iota. The usual pala is thus not part of the text; the inscription consists in the name of the deceased (individual name + patronym) in the dative. See the word pages for details.
