                "description": "SEG LIII 1921 (4); SB XVIII 13721; SEG XXXIV 1632: Flat, rounded plate or saucer of colourless transparent glass.\r\nEngraved decoration executed negatively on the outer side, so that it is seen positively on the inner side. The ornament consists of geometrical designs and stylized twigs arranged in concentric circles. There is a large chrism in the middle, surrounded by a vegetal wreath, another ring being formed by eight-pointed stars (originally there were 16 of them) and octagons of wide, cross-hatched triangles which come into mutual contact with their bases. More outwardly two wreaths frame a Greek inscription, engraved in square letters, which was restored \"with a high degree of probability\" and reads: &Pi;&Iota;&Epsilon; &Zeta;&Eta;&Sigma;&Alpha;&Iota;&Sigma; &Delta;&Iota;&Alpha; &Pi;&Alpha;&Nu;&Tau;&Omicron;&Sigma; &Alpha;&Epsilon;&Iota;, \"Drink, may you live long and for ever\".\r\nThe christogram is of the rare type that has an extra horizontal stroke across the centre and assumed to derive from the double cross.",

Decorated, in its centre, with an Adam and Eve flanking the Tree of the Knowledge scene, it bears on the lip a circular Latin inscription reading VIVAS IN DEO, as well as a chrism and the letters &Pi; and &Zeta;, standing for &Pi;&Iota;&Epsilon; &Zeta;&Eta;&Sigma;&Alpha;&Iota;&Sigma;, \"Drink, may you live!\" \u2012 an inscription similar to the one on the plate from W\u0101d\u012b Qi\u1e6dna.
