New York 2016 EDR SMYDP0433 AGP AGP-SMYDP0433 Charcoal Dimensions: 24 18 ((:imago incerta)) drawing unclear Smyrna 0180-0300 C.E. Basilica of the Agora of Smyrna, Izmir, Turkey

Julian calendar

Dipinto located on the southern face of Pier A43, between Bay 31 and Bay 32, looking into the Basilica’s northern corridor. The image, like DP43.2, was painted on the upper of two still remaining layers of plaster; it is thus later in date than DP43.1 and most probably contemporary to DP43.2. Part of the lines are either faded or damaged by lacunae, with the result that the dipinto is poorly preserved in its center and right half. The iconography of what is extant is uncertain: the drawing comprises at least two parallel vertical lines. The one to the right culminates into an inverted triangle placed over two diagonal lines forming a “v”. The one to the right has a crossing horizontal line toward the top. No identification is suggested at present.
