Commentary

First published in Solinas 2016: 377 (no. 7).

Images in Solinas 2016: tav. LVI b; Marchesini & Stifter 2018: fig. 4.5.7 (photo and drawing).

Letter width 1 cm. A character in the shape A s is fairly well distinguishable despite some surface damage. Solinas mentions further, illegible scratchings, implying that the character is part of an inscription; Marchesini & Stifter recognise only the single character (p. 146).
