Description | Wagner 1999: 151, no. 2; SEG XLIX 2215 – Funerary stela dedicated to 'Horos, Psinablite' from the al-Baǧawāt necropolis, likely from one of the multitude of pit-graves. A crux ansata is incised in the bottom right corner. Ψιναβλί(της) is a previously unattested ethnic (village of Psinabla or Psinaula); Wagner suggests that it was used in the sense of ‘belonging to the garrison of Ps.’.
