==Commentary==
Bone (''ossicle'') of an animal, not further classified.<br>Broken at one end.<br>Remains of an [[index::VR-7|inscription]].<br>The archaeological finds [[index::VR-6 antler]], [[index::VR-7 bone]] and [[index::VR-8 bone]] were picked up during an archaeological survey on the [[index::Montorio|Colle del Castello di Montorio]], near to [[index::Verona]], in 1998 (cp. {{bib|Marinetti 2004}}: 409; moreover: {{bib|MLR}}: 257).<br>The discoveries which all can be put into a context of residential structure, indicate an "''ampio arco cronologico (dal V secolo all’età imperiale)''"; a Raetic presence however can be determined for the 4th and 3rd centuries BC. For more details see {{bib|Marinetti 2004}}: 409 or {{bib|MLR}}: 257.<br>In the recently released study about the Raetic inscriptions by Marchesini the [[VR-7 bone|bone]] is listed with "MLR 292". According to the indications in {{bib|MLR}} the [[VR-7 bone|bone]] is kept in the [[index::Soprintendenza per i Beni Archeologici del Veneto – Nucleo Operativo di Verona]], an autopsy was effected (cp. {{bib|MLR}}: 258 [MLR 292]).<br>So far not autopsied by the ''Thesaurus Inscriptionum Raeticarum''. The indications follow the information given in literature (cp. below the bibliography).
