Commentary
Although no ceramological datation is possible for this very fragmentary sherd, the date proposed on behalf of the lettering fits well the archaeological context of the sounding 1959, which evidenced the building of the third retaining wall East of the agora (see Stucchi, 1965 Stucchi, S., 1965, L'agorà di Cirene, I. I lati Nord ed Est della platea inferiore, Monografie di archeologia libica7, Roma - see in bibliography , pp. 109-110).
