notes: while Humbert illustrated both (misfit?) pieces together, as did Gesenius, MANN provided to Amadasi Guzzo a photo of the inscription alone, without inventory number or dimensions; Bron has demonstrated how Jongeling erred regarding the findspot, and notation on the tracing of the relief and numeration with HTC61b (NP13) together suggest Vacca (Béja)
