Commentary

At IGCyr, we commented as follows: at line 1, we follow Oliverio in supposing that the priest was mentioned after the damiergoi, which is not compulsory, as the reverse order also happens; as shown clearly from the photograph, the father's name begins either with Βρ- or with Βι-.

Additional commentary for IGCyr2: Rosamilia 2023's thorough study places this account among the three latest of his first group. This allows him to prefer the formulation found at IGCyr011600² and IGCyr012700² with the priest named first and the fragmentary names preserved on this fragment belonging to the damiergoi. Subsequently, he was able to restore the third mentioned one with the only name beginning with Βρ- and attested at Cyrene. As to the preceding name, it mmight be either Καλλίμαχος or Καρτίμαχος, both well attested at Cyrene. Moreover, Rosamilia suggests restoring the alternative order of the different sorts of grapes, which match better an even lenght of lines (however, we drop the ἀν which he restores at each entry). This new presentation adds two restored lines on top.
