R is the standard designation, from Barthel (1958). Fischer (1997) refers to it as RR15. This piece is commonly known as Atua Mata Riri, after the first name in a chant that Ure Va‘e Iko sang to a photograph of one of Jaussen's tablets, probably A or B. The error is due to a misattribution in the Smithsonian publication of Thomson's book.
