 Cyrene Museum 1819

Fragment of a white black-veined marble circular basin, of a rather deep shape; the outer face is sculpted so as to form a folded cloth or a sea shell ( 0.29 0.20 ).

 Inscribed a) on the rim (high 0.035), b) below on the inner face, both to be read from the centre. 0.032; no serifs, deeply cut, broadly open alpha, oblique bars of kappa not intersecting with the hasta. Findspot. Perhaps fourth century B.C.

Found before 1979 at Cyrene: exact findspot unrecorded.

Seen by C.Dobias-Lalou in 1979 in Shahat, at the time in Casa Parisi, part of the Cyrene Museum.

Commentary

It is not quite clear whether this fragment belongs to a shallow basin or to a deeper bowl.

The isolated final letter of b) may form the end of the same text as a), which would be too long to be written on the rim only. Alternatively, it might belong to a different text.
