Commentary

Published from a photograph found in Oliverio's archive by Pugliese Carratelli, who thought that it might be part of IGCyr094600².

The observation of the stone shows that both thickness of the panels and lettering are quite different.

Pugliese Carratelli's idea that we might have a name in Βακχ- seems good, although such names are not frequent in Cyrenaica, see Fraser – Matthews 1987 under Βάκχις and Βάχις (which are in fact feminine names Βα(κ)χίς).
