Text type
commentary
The first letter is clearly an O. Given the relative proportions, and the lack of serif to the top left of the second letter, this is a D. The remains of the upper part of a vertical stroke are visible to the right. There is no obvious reason to associate this fragment with any of the other surviving fragments. The fragment is likely to belong to the first or second century AD.
