Commentary

The deceased's name has a non-dialectal form and his father's name is not attested elsewhere in Cyrenaica. So this family shows some influences from abroad.

The Thorns attributed this base to the North Necropolis on the assumption that the Italian archaeologists worked only in that part of the necropoleis before World War II.
