Commentary
Image in Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 276, tav. IV.4b (photo).
Small fragment of the foot of a ceramic vessel of reddish clay, found at Rondineto in unspecified context, but apparently in a tomb (Garovaglio 1883: 21, no. 17). The potsherd is assumed to be from the Palazzuola structure based on the comparison of the inscription with CO·6 and CO·15 by Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 186 and Morandi, implicitly also Gambari & Colonna 1988: 162, no. 6, who date the structure specifically to Golasecca A III 1–2 (161, no. 4; cf. Solinas, Morandi 5th c.). Generic dating to G III A above is given in accordance with the overall dating of the Rondineto graffiti (De Marinis & Motta 1991: 214).
