Not previously published. Autopsied by TIR in July 2014.

Length min. 46 cm, starting at about 60 cm from the ground, running vertically upwards, to the immediate right of AK-1.10. The best utilisable of the inscriptions in Bildstelle 4.
Traces of about four characters (the last possibly A19 d?) before tentative , the exact localisation of whose bars is dubious. After this, an angle in the lower area, possibly of . Then probably ; is well legible. Next, a clearly visible separator, followed by A19 d with very faint bar (but see below). After a narrow lacuna, and another separator. A19 d is unproblematic (but see below), A19 d more doubtful. After , a hasta, then a curved crack. At about ??? cm beyond the crack, potential traces of more characters, but not quite in line with the row of letters described – the inscription probably ends at the crack.
The sequence A19 dA19 d in the middle of an inscription is strongly reminiscent of the Steinberg rock inscriptions ST-5 and ST-6, which feature the suffix syntagma -nu-ale written with the first element separated by short medial scratches and written in ligature 
. No angle in the lower area before can be made out with any certainty, instead the small lacuna contains a round indentation, which is most probably natural (the other separators in the inscription appearing as ). In both ST-5 and ST-6, a precedes -nu-ale, but in ST-6, only the element -nu is written between separators. Despite the lacuna it cannot be excluded that the tall chevron identified as A19 d by us does not feature a bar and represents the angle of 
in the ligature. In this case, the first separator in AK-1.11 would be inserted in accordance with its usage in ST-6. The letter between A19 d and , here read l, actually appears as 
with two bars. The emendation to Lambda is based on linguistic grounds, but note that in both ST-5 and ST-6, Lambda appears in varieties with the bar extending from the centre of the hasta. In AK-1.11, the writer may have applied one of the bars to correct a mistake; in any case, either of them might be considered the correct one, hence vs. .
