## Commentary

Context: Peak sanctuary stone vessel. Both lines are broken at each end; the second runs right to left. Every group is broken: NA-[·]-DA-DA has lost its second sign, ]-U-TI-NU its start, and I-NA-I-DA-[ runs past the break.

## Epigraphic note

Karetsou, Godart & Olivier, Kadmos 24 (1985) 142–143, Fig. 21: boustrophedon, the only Iouktas text so written. .1 ]NA-[·]-DA-DA[ ··· ][, no dividers, the second sign possibly MI or PI, a lacuna of about three signs after DA. .2 runs right to left, ]-TI-NU · I-NA-I-DA-[, the first sign probably U, one more sign after DA before the break (MI possible). Not in GORILA V.
