Fragment of the rounded top of a mica schist stela, found in secondary context together with VB·22 Stresa, VB·23 Stresa, VB·24 Stresa; see Brisino for the find circumstances and context. The shape of the Roman stelae at Brisino (also VB·24 Stresa) is very similar to that of the 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. Cf. Mainardis 2009: 337 f., who assumes the existence of a single workshop for the Stresa stelae. Dating from Epigraphische Datenbank Heidelberg (HD001987). See also Caramella & De Giuli 1993: 207.
