Commentary
Context: broken stone-vessel inscription from Palaikastro. Diplomatic text: ]-TE · I-DA · JA-JA-[…. Both outer groups run into breaks; I-DA alone is complete between dividers. ‘Ida, [the Living One …]’ is a contextual restoration, not a word-for-word decipherment of the damaged groups.
Epigraphic note
Broken stone-vessel inscription. Both inscribed edges are lost; diplomatic reading: ]-TE · I-DA · JA-JA-[…. I-DA is the only complete group.
