Commentary
Fragment of a ceramic vessel.
Pellegrini does not indicate a fragment with this single character. Moreover there is no clear assignment with the material given by Leonardi and Ruta Serafini possible (cp. Leonardi & Ruta Serafini 1981: 16–34, fig. 16–31).
However, in all probability the fragment was also discovered during the excavation in 1912 executed by Alfonso Alfonsi, the superintendent of the Museo Nazionale Atestino at this time and associated with the Reale Soprintendenza per i Musei e gli scavi di Antichità del Veneto conducted by Giuseppe Pellegrini during this period. The entire material discovered in Bostel 1912 was preserved in the Museo di Asiago. Before the destruction of the museum during the war years 1915–1918 these findings were transported and securely stored in the Museo Nazionale Atestino. The current location is uncertain. The material can be still preserved in the Museo Nazionale Atestino or it is stored in the Soprintendenza per i Beni Archeologici del Veneto. Also possible is a storage in the newly founded museum, the Museo Archeologico dell'Alto Vicentino in Santorso. It can be assumed that also this fragment was traceable until 1981 because of the fact that the entire material from the excavation 1912 was documented on archaeological drawings and photos in the published work of Leonardi and Ruta Serafini (cp. Leonardi & Ruta Serafini 1981: 16–34, fig. 16–31).
According to Leonardi and Ruta Serafini the analysis of the excavations and the material yields the following timeframe: related to the entire material and the residential structure discovered during the excavations of 1912 and 1969 only few facts date to the III periodo atestino. The major part dates to the 4th–2nd centuries BC (cp. Leonardi & Ruta Serafini 1981: 66). Therefore, related to the potsherd, a dating to the 4th–2nd centuries BC is to be favoured.
So far not autopsied by the Thesaurus Inscriptionum Raeticarum. The indications follow the information given in literature (cp. below the bibliography).
