Commentary
First published in Morandi 2004: 662, no. 220.
Reading following Morandi's alternative suggestion (to his transcription "uii(?)") to read numbers; reading in original script inferred from Morandi's comments. Morandi remarks that the orientation/writing direction are uncertain; indeed, numerous readings and interpretations in North Italic and Latin script are possible. In any case, the mark is hardly language-encoding.
