Commentary
First published in Giussani 1919.
Images in Giussani 1919: 16, fig. 1 (photo) and 17, fig. 2 (drawing), Morandi 2004: 236, fig. 9.25 (drawing), Motta 2000: 199, fig. 3 (photo = Stifter 2020: ?).
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 is complete (pace Tibiletti Bruno 1975: 53), as no traces of a word divider or letters can be seen on the intact surface above final iota, where the frame forms the neck and head of the anthropomorphic figure. 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.
