Commentary

First published in Pellegrini & Sebesta 1965: 12 f. (no. 5). Autopsied by TIR in November 2014.

Images in Pellegrini & Sebesta 1965: 12 (drawing) and fig. 8 (photo), IR (drawing = LIR), LIR (photo).

Length of the remains about 10.5 cm. The scratches are deep and broad and very clearly legible. The letter preceding R s is almost certainly Φ2 s: The breaking edge, along which the edges of lines can be seen, runs in a tidy angle. Cp. SZ-2. The reading of the sixth letter as Pi is backed by the excellent documentation of the individual name piθam(n)e. The letter after N s might be A3 d or U s; the latter option is more likely, as no trace of the tip of a bar can be made out. See ??? for a discussion on whether the use of -nu vs. -na indicates gender. It is probable that the inscription as given above is complete.

Below I sR s, a sequence S dI sS s is inscribed in the same manner as the inscription proper; the two Sigmas being opposed, it is symmetrical and most certainly non-script. The same goes for the scratches on the back of the object: A sequence ]K sI sI sI sR sI s or similar, length 1.8 cm, damaged along the middle by a broad crack, is applied with a different instrument; also non-script.
