| Commentary: | Graffito of a radial pattern located on the south face of Pier A32, between Bay 20 and Bay 21, looking into the Basilica’s northern corridor. The distribution of the lines suggests that they are diameters that could have been used as guidelines in the incision of a rosette (see similar graffiti in the Basilica: DP81.1 and DP81.2). |
