| Script Commentary |
Script is rapid Rustic capital mixed with cursive elements, closely akin to the script of Paconius' letter to Macedo, Vienna Pap. L 1 (about 17–14 or 21–18 B.C.): the cursive forms of B, D, H (with the second and third strokes made without lifting the pen and forming an acute angle), and R are characteristic; i-longa occurs; the upper finials of E, F, and S and the tail of Q are sometimes abnormally long. The names of four slaves are entered on the verso in Roman cursive ca. saec. I or II. |
