Length min. 23 cm; the last character at about 110 cm above the ground. Running downwards on a small protrusion on the very left edge of the rock wall, the middle one of a group of three (Bildstelle 1, incl. [[index::AK-1.1]] and [[index::AK-1.3]]).

Traces of characters can be seen starting from the darker area of rock above the inscription, but apart from possible {{c||U5}} at about 10 cm before {{c||N}} no reading can be offered. The last five letters, however, are unambiguous, representing the suffix syntagma {{m||-nu}}{{m||-(a)le|-ale}}, well attested in the rock inscriptions of North Tyrol. We can therefore assume that the illegible part of the inscription contained at least the personal name base for the patronymic. The degree of erosion as well as the occurring letter forms are similar to those of [[index::AK-1.1]], the inscriptions may therefore have been written on the same occasion and by the same person.

Not previously published. Autopsied by TIR in July 2014.

Length min. 23 cm; the last character at about 110 cm above the ground. Running downwards on a small protrusion on the very left edge of the rock wall, the middle one of a group of three (Bildstelle 1, incl. AK-1.1 and AK-1.3).

Traces of characters can be seen starting from the darker area of rock above the inscription, but apart from possible U5 s at about 10 cm before N s no reading can be offered. The last five letters, however, are unambiguous, representing the suffix syntagma -nu-ale, well attested in the rock inscriptions of North Tyrol. We can therefore assume that the illegible part of the inscription contained at least the personal name base for the patronymic. The degree of erosion as well as the occurring letter forms are similar to those of AK-1.1, the inscriptions may therefore have been written on the same occasion and by the same person.
