Commentary

Bibliography

Read by Brandes in Groeneveldt 1887. As there is no trace of where the artefact has ended up since it was studied by Brandes, and no known visual documentation, this digital edition by Arlo Griffiths had to be made without consultation of any reproduction, let alone of the original.
