Commentary

• First published in Kasseroler 1957: 79, 102.
• Picture in Kasseroler 1957: Taf. 42 (1) (?).

Theoretically readable as ini or iuii. Kasseroler read INI in Roman letters. Added to the corpus by Mancini, but belonging with a number of pot sherds from the Himmelreich bearing diverse signs which are clearly non-script.
