Commentary

First published in Morandi 2004: 710 f., no. 284.

Morandi gives a reading ka[ without detailed description; his dating to the 4th century BC may indicate that alpha is A s (cf. the dating of BG·17 Parre). He compares various attestations of isolated ka and assumes an abbreviated (or incomplete) personal name. Cf. possible katua at Parre.
