Commentary

Bronze belt plaque.
Complete, with figural decorations. The central scene composed by a figural depiction of two deers. The deer on the right end with large antlers looks downwards, probably browsing. Around the central scene a frame made of fine grooves.
The above-mentioned dimensions result of the autopsy by the Thesaurus Inscriptionum Raeticarum. The indications given in the specialised literature differ partly: Cp. e.g. Dal Rì 1987: 177 ("Lungh. cm 35; largh. cm 12; spess. cm 0,07"; in succession Morandi 1999: 49, "Misura in lunghezza cm 35.") or Steiner 2011b: 598 ("Lungh. cm 32; largh. cm 10,4").
On the back side an inscription.
According to the information given by the official museum page the belt plaque was found in 1940, during construction works, below the Burgkofel. Cp. also: Lunz 1973b: 21; Steiner 2011b: 598–599. In contrast to this indication Morandi notes 1948 as find year (cp. Morandi 1999: 49).
Due to the figural decoration working which is adapted to the typology of the situlae the belt plaque from Lothen dates to the 5th century BC.
Schumacher indicates the Stadtmuseum Bozen / Museo Civico di Bolzano as depository (with inventory nr. 2168; cp. Schumacher 2004: 186). However, the study and autopsy of the objects preserved in the museum by the team of the Thesaurus Inscriptionum Raeticarum have shown that the belt plaque is not kept there anymore. Probably the belt plaque is now preserved in the Amt für Bodendenkmäler Bozen / Ufficio Beni archeologici Bolzano. However, since the opening of the museum Museum Mansio Sebatum the belt plaque from Lothen is preserved and shown at the local permanent exhibition. See the official page of the museum (as at 30. October 2014).
Autopsied by the Thesaurus Inscriptionum Raeticarum in June 2015.
