Description: Sandstone blocks
(w:
lengths varying x h:
0.36 x d:

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,

There is an extensive space to the left, where part of the surface is lost.
