Commentary
Image in Pernet et al. 2006: pl. sub 73.6 (drawing).
The saddle-shaped silver bracelet (type 2) comes from one of the graves which were excavated by Domenico Pini without supervision; the inventory includes objects from different periods and is probably not authentic (Tori et al. 2004: 62, 64, Pernet et al. 2006: 294 f.; the grave complex is described in Tori et al. 2004: 128 f.). On the classification of the object see Pernet et al. 2006: 118 f., 158, cat. 51. See also Ulrich 1914 I: 561.
The dating follows Pernet et al. 2006; De Marinis & Biaggio Simona 2000: 462, no. 530 give the late 2nd–early 1st century BC.
