The fragment preserves parts of two lines, each written inside frame lines. According to {{bib|Piana Agostinetti 2004}}: 156, the inscriptions ran from the bottom toward the top; differently {{bib|Morandi 2004}}, who assumes that they were horizontal (why?). Reading of the letters according to Tibiletti Bruno, who considers both lines to be complete on top – is the trace after kappa in line 1 the neck of the anthropomorphic frame? In that case, the stela could be classified as type C according to the typology of {{bib|De Marinis & Motta 1991}}: 206 – thus {{bib|Motta 2000}}: 204, although he, like {{bib|Morandi 2004}}, considers both lines to be incomplete also on top (]''osik''[ / ]''iuka''[). Morandi observes that an additional vertical line disturbs alpha in line 2 (]''osik''?[ / ]?''iukạị''[), possibly iota to form a feminine dative ending.

The fragment preserves parts of two lines, each written inside frame lines. According to Piana Agostinetti 2004: 156, the inscriptions ran from the bottom toward the top (cf. TI·36.1/TI·36.2); differently Morandi 2004, who assumes that they were horizontal (why?). Reading of the letters according to Tibiletti Bruno, who considers both lines to be complete on top – is the trace after kappa in line 1 the neck of the anthropomorphic frame? In that case, the stela could be classified as type C according to the typology of De Marinis & Motta 1991: 206 – thus Motta 2000: 204, although he, like Morandi 2004, considers both lines to be incomplete also on top (]osik[ / ]iuka[). Morandi observes that an additional vertical line disturbs alpha in line 2 (]osik?[ / ]?iukạị[), possibly iota to form a feminine dative ending.
