Gambacurta dates the bone to the first half of the 4th century BC (cp. {{bib|Gambacurta 2002b}}: 124).
The Monte Ozol site was in use, originally and probably throughout, as a burnt-offerings site from the Late Bronze to the Early Iron Age, possibly even into Roman times; highly diverse finds in combination with nearby fundaments of buildings make further interpretation difficult ({{bib|Gleirscher et al. 2002}}: 247 [no. 133]). According to {{bib|Perini 2002}}: 767, the find comes from a layer dated to Retico A (middle of the 6<sup>th</sup>–middle of the 5<sup>th</sup> century). ({{bib|Gambacurta 2002b}}: 124 gives the first decades of the 4<sup>th</sup> century, but this appears to refer to a questionable dating of the inscription, not to the object.)

Commentary

The Monte Ozol site was in use, originally and probably throughout, as a burnt-offerings site from the Late Bronze to the Early Iron Age, possibly even into Roman times; highly diverse finds in combination with nearby fundaments of buildings make further interpretation difficult (Gleirscher et al. 2002: 247 [no. 133]). According to Perini 2002: 767, the find comes from a layer dated to Retico A (middle of the 6th–middle of the 5th century). (Gambacurta 2002b: 124 gives the first decades of the 4th century, but this appears to refer to a questionable dating of the inscription, not to the object.)
