Commentary
Images in Rhŷs 1914: pl. II (photo), Morandi 1999: 202, tav. XV.1 (photo = Morandi 2004: 800, tav. XXIII.161).
Fragment (whole foot) of a ceramic vessel of black clay, found at Rondineto in unspecified context, but apparently in a tomb (Garovaglio 1883: 20, no. 1, 21). Generic dating to G III A above is given in accordance with the overall dating of the Rondineto graffiti (De Marinis & Motta 1991: 214).
