[B-Greek] Mark 16:9 and the comma

Could anyone comment on the validity or otherwise of placing a comma 
after a past participle as an opening word in a Greek sentence. I am 
referring to Mark 16:9 ANASTAS DE PROI PROTE SABBATOU.  This is 
normally translated "having risen on the first day of the 
week."  Some want to put the comma after the participle ANASTAS 
DE.  Is this a natural way to read the Greek? Can one begin with a 
participle by itself and have a comma after it?
