Commentary
Potsherd, part of a bowl.
Small bowl with a compressed body. Strongly domed belly, curved funnel-shaped rim. Fine clay of grey in colour with a moderate temper of very fine calcareous grains and quartz particles; smooth coat of brown in colour, inside as well as outside; reduced firing.
No further decorations.
On the bottom remains of an inscription (cp. Franz 1959: 229).
The present potsherd derives from the later Iron Age settlement on the lynchet in the south of the principal hilltop, discovered by Fridolin Plant and Franz Tappeiner at the end of the 19th century. The excavations were continued by Alois and Oswald Menghin from 1904 to 1909.
Only few bronze objects and a number of fragmentary bowls with compressed S-shaped profile or compressed body belong to the context of the later Iron Age (cp. Lunz 1974: 195–196).
Autopsied by the Thesaurus Inscriptionum Raeticarum in November 2013.
