Commentary

Not previously published. Examined by TIR in July 2014.

Images in Mandl 2011: Abb. 137 and 140 (photos).

The doubtful remains of a vertical inscription, min. 15 cm, on Bildstelle 2, to the left of AK-1.5; the dubious R d at about 160 cm above the ground. While the last four characters seem unambiguous, the inscription has an overall un-Raetic look to it: the characters are considerably smaller than usual for Raetic rock inscriptions. The group of lines before R d may be arranged into a Lepontic "butterfly" san. Possibly the remains of a younger inscription. In any case, no reading can be offered.
