Commentary

First published in IR.
Pictures in IR (photo tav. XLIX, fig. c and drawing) = LIR (photo and drawing).
A reading iiv or iie (with the uppermost twig broken away) is possible, but the scratches are most probably ornamental: The vertical strokes seem to be repeated on the more heavily damaged other end, and are also found on SZ-22 grip; the oblique stokes may be intended to be script-like.
