Inscription SZ-66.

Commentary

First published in IR.

Images in Nothdurfter 1979: Abb. 22 (no. 192) (drawing), IR (drawing) = LIR.

Heavily damaged by corrosion; the remains of strokes cannot be arranged into letters, and neither do they correspond to any of the inscriptions otherwise found in this spot on axes (cp. uli, la). On the opposite side, the trace of a possibly intentional stroke can be detected.
