Description: Sandstone blocks
(w:
lengths varying x h:
0.36 x d:
0.50), on which
formal inscriptions have been cut at irregular intervals along both courses, most of them within wreaths of varying patterns.
The legible texts are
T.75, T.76, T.77,
T.78, T.79, T.80,
T.81, T.82. The equally numerous illegible ones
appear to have been deliberately erased presumably to make space.

i to the left, ii to the right. There is an extensive space between i and ii, and the traces of other texts.
Letters: 0.02; lunate epsilon and sigma; L for ἔτους
