The graffito is written orthograde, and the preserved fragment begins to the right of the broken off handle. Inscription on the lip is likely to be sympotic or dedicatory. One possibility is that the inscription started left of the handle and that on our fragment we have its continuation. To run out of space and having to break and then continue the text after the handle, it would have had to be a longish text, e.g. a full dedicatory formula or a sympotic text. The second sentence could have been a personal name (also still left of the handle) followed by either a patronymic or an ethnic, such as ὁ Σά[μιος] or ὁ Σά[τυρου], concluding, e.g., with ἔγραψεν. Another possibility is that the continuation of the text began with a pronoun ὅς - who/whoever, as a few sympotic inscriptions show, a clause "whoever drinks..." (e.g. on the famous Nestor's cup from Pithecusae), so we could restore e.g. ὂς ἄ[ν - -]. A similar formula might be in use on 2.1.1 32.
