Commentary
Ceramic fragment.
Potsherd of a bowl type Fritzens. The present fragment is restored by composing two smaller fragments. Concerning an entire bowl type Fritzens less than half of a bowl is preserved.
Fine clay, from brown to black in colour, with a moderate temper of fine grained sand; burnished; reduction firing.
Below the rim a highly corroded iron ribbon.
In the belly area four circumferential lines form an ornament band under them, in direction to the bottom of the bowl, vertical striae-decorations. Decorations before firing. Concerning the decoration shape cp. also the decorations of the other inscribed exemplar related to a bowl type Fritzens listed in the Thesaurus Inscriptionum Raeticarum.
On the bottom two preserved characters incised before firing. The characters correspond with the characters on the bottom of two other bowls (cp. the inscriptions: RN-3, WE-7). Probably the characters θṛ[ (in original script: ]) present a factory mark.
Further information about the find circumstances are unknown. Only the Non valley can be verified as findspot (cp. Franz 1957: 108). In 1956 the present fragment was rediscovered during the revision of the museum inventory (cp. Franz 1957: 105). According to the listed museum stock the present fragment is preserved in the museum since 1894.
Due to the fact that the archaeological context is unknown, the age determination must be concerted with the typology of the bowls type Fritzens. In general, by comparing the different statements given by the various scholars, the Early as well as the beginnings of the Middle La Tène period can be connected with the duration of the bowls type Fritzens (cp. Gamper 2006: 14–17).
Although the bowls type Fritzens, together with the Sanzeno bowls, are the key forms of the Fritzens-Sanzeno-culture only two inscribed bowls are listed in the Thesaurus Inscriptionum Raeticarum (cp. IT-2 potsherd and the present fragment).
Autopsied by the Thesaurus Inscriptionum Raeticarum in November 2013.
