Commentary

Unpublished. Autopsied by TIR in July 2014.

Images in Mandl 2011: Abb. 137 and 140 (photos). Photo of the entire rock wall in Mandl 2011: Abb. 136.

The doubtful remains of a vertical inscription, running upwards, on Bildstelle 2. After a patch which has been intentionally corraded, the scratches are clearly visible in an area of porous surface. Mandl 2011 assumes them to be the upper part of an erased image, but despite the unusual curved bars of E3 d, an interpretation of the group as the remains of an inscription is not unlikely (but note the superfluous small straight bar between the curved bars of K4 d).
