What's the "too" at the bottom? It doesn't seem to be in the original.

It's interesting to me that the Romans seem to have reversed (flipped left to right) many letters to suit their own devices. Uncreative bastards!!

They seem to have reversed EVERY non-symmetrical letter. I wonder if there was some sort of engraving system involved, where an inscription in one clay tablet could be dried out, and then pressed on another clay tablet to copy it.
This link implies that (at least sometimes) archaic Latin/greek was written right-to-left. The hardened engravings would travel better, but be reversed, while the soft clay ones would be considered more disposable.

I was hoping to get to the end of it with a Zetabet. Only to discover there is an Etabet and Thetabet. Iota hope it eventually gets resolved.
