Inscribed on the inside bottom of the bowl; all preserved letters damaged on top by the break. Description of the traces in TB, who does not offer a reading; the only clearly identifiable letters are pi and alpha in the middle, cf. Solinas 1995: 360, no. 94 l ]??paịei?, Morandi ]??paịṭịṭ[. Morandi suspects pseudo-script, but offers a vague palaeographical dating ("abbastanza antica") based on alpha.
