Dear Sir, 
Read April II, rnp^ H E two Punic legends, of which 
1771* Jl^ I am now to attempt an interpre- 
tation, have been publifhed, together with five others, 
by the Prince (1) di Torremuzza, in his volume of 
ancient inferiptions, printed at Palermo, in 1769. 
As the coins, on which they have been preferved, 
feem extremely curious, and' are unnoticed by any 
other author ; the Royal Society will indulge me the 
liberty of tranfinitting them my fentiments of thofe 
very valuable remains of antiquity, in this paper, 
drawn up in the fhorteft and mofl: concife manner 
poffible.
