Commentary
First published in IR. Autopsied by TIR in November 2013.
Pictures in IR (photo tav. XLIX, fig. a and drawing = LIR).
The scratches can be arranged to read ua or uiθ – the black inlay is misleading, as it does not fill the scratches completely. Probably non-script. See here for a discussion of possible interpretations of inscriptions with doubtful status.
Notes: First published in Torggler-Wöß 1953b: 442, fig. 1. Scratched after firing.
