Whereas Melchert (DLL:66) and Gehrisch 2018a:33 assume the word to be complete, Neumann 2007a:359 remains skeptical, i.e. tibera[, and suggests seeing the conjunction tibe ‘or’ following by a broken off word. Based on the autography by Kalinka 1901a:25, it looks as if no other sign comes after a, although a new collation of the inscription would be necessary to verify this claim. Pending further evidence, nothing else can be said about this word.
