Images in Tibiletti Bruno 1977b: 101 (photo), Solinas 1995: 362 (drawing), Morandi 1999: 178 (drawing = Morandi 2004: 634, fig. 21.172) and 201, tav. XIV.3 (photo).

Last four letters of the inscription preserved on the fragment, written on the outside bottom just above the rim of the foot it looks like; writing direction can be determined based on alpha. Reading ]tias from TB (also Morandi 1999: 178, no. 25, and 2004); Solinas has dextroverse sapst[ to compare with sapsutai, but the extra lines are faint, unintentional scratches.
