Text type
commentary
In this partly fragmentary inscription the sense of κοινά could be, as has been noted (cf. Dubois IGDS no.144d; Arena IGASM no.33), that of 'offering', of '(oil lamp) shared with' (cf. ISic020443) or it could correspond to the feminine Κοίνα of the uncommon anthroponym Κοινός (cf. LGPN V3A: 32169; V3B: 12961; V4: 30188-89-90-91-92).
