Fragment of a beola gneiss stela found in early July 1913 during the repair of the public washhouse of Banco, where it was used to cover the drainage canal ({{bib|Giussani 1914}}: 56). According to the surveyor Mario Ferretti, whose report is published in Giussani's article, the fragment is likely to come from a necropolis which was excavated near the ossuary of S. Maria di Banco in 1852: a number of tombs built with slabs and equipped with ceramic and bronze objects were unearthed and the stones removed, the inscribed fragment ending up as building material for the washhouse. Pieces are missing both on top and at the bottom; preserved is part of the body of the anthropomorphic frame with part of the neck. Dating according to {{bib|De Marinis & Motta 1991}}: 206 – the authors tentatively ascribe the stela to their type B, but type C seems more appropriate with regard to the clear definition of a neck (cf. esp. [[TI·36.1]]/[[TI·36.2]]).

According to the surveyor Mario Ferretti, whose report is published in Giussani's article, with additional observations recorded in Rhŷs 1914: 4 f., the fragment is likely to come from a necropolis which was excavated near the ossuary of S.

Pieces are missing both on top and at the bottom; preserved is part of the body of the anthropomorphic frame with part of the neck. Dating according to De Marinis & Motta 1991: 206 – the authors tentatively ascribe the stela to their type B, but type C seems more appropriate with regard to the clear definition of a neck (cf. esp.
