1.1.3Graphic Features
Checked against the photograph in the Konkordanz. Based on the photo, it is not clear whether the word ends with 〈ut〉 or another sign follows, whereas the autography seems to consider 〈ut〉 to be the last sign of the word. Carruba 1970a:26 and Starke 1985a:42 did not transliterate the word fully and did not recognize that the entire fragment contains the beginning of the column, making the leftmost sign the first one of each word.
