- Description
Five fragments of an uncertain number of panels of wall revetment of white marble. The inscription is in one line.
- Dimensions
- Preserved H. 0.30, preserved W. 0.68, H. of letters 0.045.
- Comments
“The sequence of the first three fragments is uncertain” (Kroll). As the first letter of the first fragment is an ι, Ameling’s proposal of [κα]τ᾿ εὐχά[ς?] seems to be excluded.
