Potsherd CO·9 Rondineto with inscription CO·9 from Tibiletti Bruno 1969b

Commentary

Images in Barelli 1877/Garovaglio 1877: tav. III.40 (drawing), Oberziner 1883: tav. XIX.14 (drawing copied from Garovaglio), Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 277, tav. V.6 (photo).

Fragment of the foot of an unvarnished patera of blackish clay (Garovaglio 1877: 36, no. 40, whose drawing inaccurately shows the complete rim of the foot, cf. Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 188), found in Rondineto in unspecified circumstances (Barelli 1877: 4). Generic dating to G III A above is given in accordance with the overall dating of the Rondineto graffiti (De Marinis & Motta 1991: 214), cf. Morandi.
