Commentar
Image in De Giuli 1979: 247, fig. 2 (photo).
Fragment (upper part) of a mica schist stela with slanting top edge, found in secondary context together with VB·22 Stresa, VB·24 Stresa, VB·25 Stresa; see Brisino for the find circumstances and context. The original shape/size of the stone is unclear, but was clearly similar to that of VB·22 Stresa and different from that of the stelae with Latin inscriptions from Brisino (VB·24 Stresa, VB·25 Stresa) and both epichoric and Latin documents from Levo. De Giuli 1979: 251 mentions the possibility that the Brisino stones may come from the same site as the finds in Levo, though it seems quite possible that a pre-Roman/Roman necropolis existed in Brisino in the area of the Chiesa di Sant'Albino. Among the Stresa gravestones, the present object and VB·22 Stresa have the most archaic shape and may thus represent the oldest layer, but Mainardis 2009: 337 f. correctly points out that one stonemason/workshop would be able to produce stelae according to more traditional or modern tastes all dating to the same time. In any case, Morandi's dating to the late 2nd c. BC seems too early; the 1st c. BC is also given by Tibiletti Bruno 1979: 254. See also Caramella & De Giuli 1993: 207.
