Commentary
First published in Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 198, no. 17.
Images in Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 281, tav. IX.17a (photo), Morandi 1999: 179 (drawing = Morandi 2004: 634, fig. 21.171) and 201, tav. XIV.4 (photo).
Inscribed in large letters on the foot of the bowl; only alpha is clear. The remains of the upper part(s) of (a) letter(s) are read pesa or vesa by TB, who takes some faint lines into consideration (also Tibiletti Bruno 1978: 147, Solinas 1995: 359, no. 94 g). Differently Morandi 1999: 178 f., no. 26 (also 2004) ma[ (why incomplete?), with palaeographical dating to the end of the 5th c. based on alpha.
