Commentary
Der Name der Verstorbenen ist bis jetzt nicht bezeugt. Todestag auch nach hebräischem Kalender angegeben (luna octaba): eher ein Samstag, nicht ein Freitag, wie in der Inschrift steht. In den Buchstaben Reste roter Farbe erkennbar. (B): Z. 2: Libertini, AAT: Samoil comparabi; Z. 3: Libertini, Scritti: exsoris; Z. 4/5: AE: Novembr/es; Z. 8/9: adiuro vos per victorias qui in/perant item fehlt in Libertini, AAT. Libertini denkt bei Lasiferine an doppelten Namen Lasi Ferine oder Lasif Erine, AE an Lusiferine, Lusiferina oder Lusiferis. (C): Erklärung per victorias qu(a)e inperant ist falsch.
