Commentary

First published in IR.
Pictures in Nothdurfter 1979: 101 (1074) (drawing), LIR (photo and drawing) = IR (drawing).
Compare the similar inscriptions SZ-44.1 / SZ-44.2 and SZ-46.1 / SZ-46.2, also on scythe rings, with uθiiθi on one and la on the other side. SZ-45.1 differs from these in that it is written in smaller signs close to one edge of the scythe ring on the inside, with la on the outside.
