commentary

The inscription appears already in the museum inventory of 1885, described as 'prov. incerta', and was previously observed in the earlier version of the museum by Julius Schubring in the 1860s. There is no record of how it came to be in Sicily, and as Manganaro obserfves, it most likely arrived as ballast stone in a ship (at some date prior to c.1860).
