Commentary
Image in Piana Agostinetti 2004: 196, fig. 10.56 (drawing).
Rectangular mica schist stela with straight top, one top corner broken off; incomplete at the bottom according to Piana Agostinetti 2004: 196. See Levo for the find circumstances and context. Bought by Fabretti for the museum in Torino (De-Vit in Ferrero 1889: 262). The shape of the stone is similar to that of a Roman stela from Levo (VB·29 Stresa) and the Zoverallo stela. The gravestones from the Verbano cannot be marshalled into a clear chronological order, as factors like stone shape, frames, writing direction, letter forms and language/text formula appear in almost free combination. Mainardis 2009: 337 f. correctly points out that one stonemason/workshop would be able to produce stelae according to more traditional or modern tastes all dating to roughly the same time. Morandi's dating to the second half of the 2nd c. BC in any case seems too early; we prefer to date the Verbano stones with epichoric inscriptions roughly to the 1st c. BC. See also Caramella & De Giuli 1993: 209 f.
