In 2013, part of an inscribed stele was auctioned by the international auction house Bonhams. The surviving part of the inscription allows us to identify it with a confession inscription published in 2018 by Hasan Malay. However, Malay only published the text of the inscription based on a copy taken by other epigraphers, which did not record any other information about the stele. Based on the photo from the auction catalogue, above the inscription there is a relief depicting a woman standing next to an altar. In addition, the photograph allows us to make minor corrections to the edition of the text.
