Commentary

The use of the word μηνί/month which appears in all the entries of this text but is otherwise rare suggests that all were cut within a comparatively short space of time.

Line 1: Oliverio secluded ν and interpreted the text as year 9, month Hathyr, presumably because νθ΄, 59 of the Actian era, would be CE 28/9, while if the following dates are taken to be the year 13 of the reign of Tiberius they are of CE 26; but there are parallels for the placing of a later text above earlier ones.

Col. b, line 3: Δαδος is probably a form of David, indicating a Jew.
