Commentary
Patera of black-varnished ware found in the area of the San Bernardo necropolis during work on the railway; broken and incomplete according to Bianchetti 1895: 188 (no. 2). Assumed to be in the Sezione archeologica "Enrico Bianchetti" of the Museo del Paesaggio in Ornavasso, but currently untraceable. Morandi gives the late 2nd c. as dating, possibly based on Piana Agostinetti 1997–1999 II: 94, n. 1060, III: 246 f., n. 1060, though the letter forms seem to indicate a dating to the last phase of San Bernardo.
