Commentary

Oliverio ( ) published only fragment a, but conveyed information about fragment b to Hondius, who published the whole in SEG, 9.93 . During Pugliese Carratelli's and Morelli's visit in 1960 the latter registered only fragment b, whereas the former published the whole from Oliverio's drawing (not given), without identifying it with the inscription already published by Oliverio. C. Dobias-Lalou from 1976 on also found only fragment b. Fragment a is probably lost for ever.
