Commentary
Image in Motta 2000: 204, fig. 8 (photo).
Fragment of a stela which had been used as a weight for a wire in a vinyard, possibly found in the early 1930s when digging a well behind the church San Rocco (Tibiletti Bruno 1997: 139 after Gilardoni 1956). See the inscription page on suggestions for a typological/palaeographical dating.
