Commentary
Not previously published. The inscription was only detected belatedly on photographs made by TIR; autopsy is pending.
Image in Mandl 2011: Abb. 142 (photo). Photo of the entire rock wall in Mandl 2011: Abb. 136.
Length of the remains about ??? cm, running vertically downwards to the left of and below AK-1.6, ending in a lacuna (chipping of the stone) just above ground level. One of only two legible inscriptions on the rock facing toward the left. Framed by two distinct lines which can be seen to extend to about ??? cm above .
No traces of letters between the frame lines above , which is surprising seeing as is distinctly visible. The next letter is damaged by the lacuna, but its top in the form of a lopsided angle 
in combination with the likely identification of the sequence as the remains of the suffix group -nu-ale suggests Alpha. Cp. AK-1.19, similar in size and orientation. There is no space for both postulated letters 
below Alpha, indicating that the ground level today is higher than it was at the time when the inscription was written (unless the writer just misjudged the space).
