Commentary

First published in IR.

A profusion of scratches of varying depth in two groups, the upper one (as in the drawing) about 7.2 cm, the lower one about 6.9 cm in length. While some of the lines form basic characters like Θ s or I s, many mesh and are part of zig-zag patterns. Possibly pseudo-script. See here for a discussion of possible interpretations of inscriptions with doubtful status.
