Commentary

First published in Franz 1957: 108 f. Autopsied by TIR in November 2013.

Picture in Franz 1957: Abb. 3.

Compare the very similar inscriptions NO-14 and RN-3, both on the feet of ceramic bowls. WE-7 is less tidily scratched, enabling Franz to read the St. Andrew's cross as symbol s and classing the inscription as one of his "Reitia-Inschriften".
