| Notes: |
The engraved symbol AB 81 KU is one of the "variants" with a noteworthy difference from the standard symbol.Possibly the lacking number of inventory 71968 could be referred to an analogous nodule and could be one of the two missing objects from the group of 32 original nodules (Del Freo cit., commentary to 71967) |
