Commentary

Fragment of a sandstone stela or slab found in 1904 in a heap of discarded stones from the restauration of the Collegio don Bosco; the stone also bears a modern inscription (Rhŷs 1913: 16, no. 4, Piana Agostinetti 2004: 176). Formerly in the Museo Storico in Lugano, currently untraceable.
