Garovaglio's drawing of CO·45 Rondineto with inscription CO·45 from Tibiletti Bruno 1969b

Commentary

First published in Barelli 1879/Garovaglio 1879.

Image in Barelli 1879/Garovaglio 1879: tav. II.e (drawing = Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 286, tav. XIV.35).

The epsilon-like character is inscribed on the foot of the vessel, and incomplete; Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 211 f., no. 35 reads e with straight bars, but probably not alphabetic. The second character in Garovaglio's drawing, on the bottom above the foot, is a mark, see the object page.
