Commentary
First published in MLR. Autopsied by TIR on 14th October 2015.
Image in MLR (photo).
Inscribed on the narrow bottom of the beaker, the tops of the characters pointing towards the foot. The characters take up the entire breadth of the bottom; length about 3.3 cm. The right hasta of is slighty curved. The lower bar of is almost invisible. The sequence is most probably a local workman's mark. Cp. AS-19.2, AS-21, AS-22 and AS-23, and the other instances on the present object.
