| Palaeography: | Macalister/1945, 263: `Evidently the scribe found that he had made a mistake (having written maci formucoi: compare the preceding inscription [DROM/1]), and so he began again on the second angle, and wrote the corrected version...The last three letters are carried across the face of the stone in the same manner as the end of the preceding inscription: the consonant G and its flanking vowels are not as carefully differentiated as they might have been'. |
