==Commentary==
The beaker was collocated inside the urn with the ashes of the deceased and other metal artifacts. Probably these objects were, since deposited inside the urn, personal objects of the deceased. The grave can be dated to the horizon Golasecca II A - II B (2<sup>nd</sup> - 3<sup>rd</sup> quarter of the 6<sup>th</sup> century, {{bib|Gambari & Colonna 1986}}: 120, 128-129). (Morandi after Gambari: Ticino A) The shape of the beaker is archaic, probably derived from metal object types ({{bib|Morandi 1999}}: 153, {{bib|Gambari & Colonna 1986}}: 126-127).

Found in 1985 in the course of a rescue excavation in Via Aronzo (Cascina Baraggia, the site of the scuola materna) in the centre of Castelletto Ticino, in a grave belonging to a small Golaseccan necropolis. While the majority of the graves were unprotected and dated to G I C (7th c. BC), grave 5 in the centre is a cist grave constructed of local granite slabs with a complete inventory related to a male (see Gambari & Colonna 1988: 120–126), which can be dated to the second quarter of 6th c. BC (late G II A). The globular beaker with outward-bent rim and concave foot was deposited inside the urn together with the ashes and the metal objects, and was thus probably a personal objects of the deceased (Gambari & Colonna 1988: 120, 126).
