Commentary
Fragments of a patera of terra sigillata found in the inhumation grave no. 124 of the In Persona necropolis (see Bianchetti 1895: 269 f. with the grave inventory). The part on which a stapm would be is missing; terminus post quem for the dating based on an associated coin find according to Morandi. Assumed to be in the Sezione archeologica "Enrico Bianchetti" of the Museo del Paesaggio in Ornavasso, but currently untraceable.
