[^1: Boardman]

a. À Dèmèter [...].

b. Intraduisible.

a. For Demeter [...].

b. Not usefully translatable.

a. Per Demetra [...].

b. Intraducibile..

Hayes, in [...], p. 48, says that graffiti run on both sides, whereas Boardman, in [...], p. 85, takes fragm. b, which runs under a handle, to follow fragm. a, but without any indication of the possible extent of the missing part. Thus it seems more cautious to present them separately.

In fragment b, letters of ll. 1 and 2 are crossing one another, so that the reading is very hazardous.

On the whole, the only clear element is the very plausible dative of Demeter's name.
