Commentary
Image in Pellegrini 1963: 302, fig. 1 (photo).
Upper part (shoulder and mouth) of a vaso a trottola found among other ceramic vessels, probably from a necropolis, at Madonna delle Bozzole, about ten years before the first mention in Strada 1958: 171. Measurements from Pellegrini 1963: 302; dating from Morandi (Pellegrini gives the second half of the 2nd century BC, based on nothing much really; Lejeune RIG II: 40 says that the associated coins were produced until the mid-1st century BC). According to Morandi 1999: 185, n. 108, the object was at that time in the depot of the Soprintendenza Archeologica della Lombardia, where it had come with the Collezione Strada from the Castello di Scaldasole (letter from Antonio Strada 15.6.1997) (but no mention of the object in Invernizzi 2024).
