Apparatus criticus

  • Text after Manganaro 1999 ;
  • 1: Orsi: τάλ]αντα; Arangio-Ruiz: τά].αντα
  • 2: Orsi correctly read the final two letters of line 2, which turn right down the margin of the bronze, but wrongly attributed them to the end of lines 3 and 4 as Ο and Ζ respectively (followed by Arangio-Ruiz)
  • 4: Manganaro speculates on a fifth line reading τάλαντα, but given that the lower margin is complete, this would be on the missing left part (with limited space)
