The first two and a half lines of this text seem to have contained the names of a priest and priestess of Magna Mater. The three descending Roman numerals in the fourth line can refer to nothing else except a calendrical date, and the “bres” in the fifth line must be the final syllable of a month’s name (September, October, November, or December). In addition, since the dividing day (kalends, nones, ides) has not been preserved, there are, alas, nine different possibilities from which to choose:

Aug. 28–30 Oct. 3–5 Nov. 9–11

Sept. 9–11 Oct. 11–13 Nov. 27–29

Sept. 27–29 Oct. 28–30 Dec. 9–11
