Fragment of a mica schist stela or slab, found in March 1841 a quarter of a mile from Aranno near the old street which leads from there via the Monte d'Iseo to Neggio, on the property of one Vittore Corti (locality Màrtera according to {{bib|Tibiletti Bruno 1978}}: 136), at a depth of somewhat over half a metre, together with three other stone fragments. According to the first owner of the finds, Vittore Pelli from Aranno, they are the remains of a grave chamber, destroyed by the finders ({{bib|Mommsen 1853}}: 202 f., no. 5). The four fragments from Aranno were thus originally thought to be parts of the same stela despite not fitting together. {{bib|Rhŷs 1913}}: 23 determined them to belong to at least two stones, {{bib|Tibiletti Bruno 1965}} (also {{bib|Tibiletti Bruno 1965|1968c}}: 356) to be fragments of four different stelae which had been reused for the Aranno tomb. Built into a wall of Pelli's house (later the Osteria della Posta) until May 2000, they were removed on occasion of the [[De Marinis & Biaggio Simona 2000|''I Leponti'' exhibition]]. Dating according to {{bib|De Marinis & Motta 1991}}: 206, who tentatively classify the document as their type C; indeed, the beginning of stylised feet can be made out at the breaking edge.

Commentary

Images in Mommsen 1853: Taf. I.5c (drawings by Pelli = CII: tab. I.1C a and b), CII: tab. LVIII.1C (drawing of a cast by Serafino Balestra ~ Pauli 1885: Taf. I.1c), Tibiletti Bruno 1965: 111 and 117 (photos) and 116 (drawing ~ Tibiletti Bruno 1990b: 81), Motta 2000: 203, fig. 7 (photo). Photo of a plaster cast, probably from the Museo Civico Lugano, in Motta & Ricci 1908: tav. II; while this cast must be assumed to be lost, two more casts are said to be kept at the Rätisches Museum (Chur) and at the defunct Museo Civico Storico Bellinzona by Tibiletti Bruno 1965: 104, n. 16 (the latter currently untraceable). In great detail on the history of the documentation Tibiletti Bruno 1965: 103–105 with footnotes.

Fragment of a mica schist stela or slab, found in March 1841 a quarter of a mile from Aranno near the old street which leads from there via the Monte d'Iseo to Neggio, on the property of one Vittore Corti, at a depth of somewhat over half a metre, together with three other stone fragments. According to the first owner of the finds, Vittore Pelli from Aranno, they are the remains of a grave chamber (of uncertain age), destroyed by the finders (Mommsen 1853: 202 f., no. 5). Differently Crivelli 1940: 333, who gives the find year as 1818 and locates Corti's property in the locality Màrtera. See Tibiletti Bruno 1965: 105–109 for a discussion of the find circumstances. Built into a wall of Pelli's house (no. 26, later the Osteria della Posta; photo and drawing in Tibiletti Bruno 1965: 106 f.) until May 2000, they were removed on occasion of the I Leponti exhibition.

The four fragments from Aranno were originally thought to be parts of the same stela despite not fitting together. Tibiletti Bruno 1965: 109–114 (already Lavizzari 1863, also 1968c: 356) based on micro- and macroscopic petrographic analyses concluded that they are fragments of at least three different stelae which had been reused for the Aranno tomb. See the inscription page for further discussion and the typological/palaeographical dating.
