Commentary

First published in IR. Autopsied by TIR in November 2013.

Pictures in Nothdurfter 1979: 100 (9) (drawing), IR (drawing = LIR) and LIR (photo).

Inscription length 3.9 cm. The top half of the second Θ s is hardly distinguishable due to corrosion. Possibly followed by a third I s on the right – see uθiiθi.
