Commentary
Bronze. According to Walde-Psenner in the shape of a panther at which the identification as panther is uncertain. More probably is a horse or optionally a dog.
Length 7.2 cm, height 5.7 cm.
Smooth dark-green patina. Cast in open mould, so only one half cast and the back side is not sculptured. At the widest area of the back side a slight indentation. At the edge area flashes filed away in part. The mouth is broken and perforated. Intentionally shortened feet, curved tail.
On the back and chest area probably remains of an inscription.
The surface of the back side slightly curved what is unexpected related to an open mould cast.
Probably an arguable interpretation, due to the last-mentioned fact, is the interpreation of the bronze as tessera hospitalis (oral notice by Schumacher). The interpretation of the strokes at the neck and back area as characters is also arguable. Probably the strokes are indications of a mane, so the interpretation as tessersa hospitalis is then again arguable. Cp. the present bronze with SZ-13 bronze.
The state of preservation does not allow any indication like date or classification of working.
Find spot Sanzeno, but further find circumstances unknown.
Autopsied by the Thesaurus Inscriptionum Raeticarum in November 2013.
