commentary

The text is reported by Kaibel in IG, as one of three fragments 'in domo Ansaldi'. There appears to be no subsequent record of the fragments. From the content and presentation, there appears no reason to assume that the fragments belong together, and indeed fragments 1 and 3 cannot be part of the same text, since they contain overlapping elements.
