Masson's reading was the nearest to Negri's copy; the last letter seen by Beschi at line 2 might be the right part of delta, which he took for the lower part of a sigma.

In an unpublished letter to Masson (1974-08-18), Beschi said that he had noted for this base «same dimensions and ornaments as (IGCyr007900)».

Laronde (in his hitherto unpublished Prosopographia), who had seen the stone, could not read more than νικο because other blocks had fallen upon it.

From Cassels' notebook, published by Thorn, it appears that the former had eventually identified the base and insisted that he had the exact reading.
