Irregular stela of beola gneiss found during the building of the road to Indemini in mid-March 1917, when a moraine was cleared near the locality Campaccio, at a depth of ca. 1.5 m ({{bib|Giussani 1919}}: 15 f.). Dating based on {{bib|De Marinis & Motta 1991}}: 206, who tentatively ascribe the stela to their type B (rectangular stela with anthropomorphic frame); {{bib|Morandi 2004}} gives the first half of the 4<sup>th</sup> c. BC.
