Commentary
According to Schumacher the fragment was first mentioned in Schumacher 1992: 190, and later assumed in the revised edition from 2004 (Schumacher 2004: 190, 216, Taf. 5.3, Taf. 6.2). The sherd however was first mentioned in Sinnhuber 1949: 64–65, Taf. XXV, 43.
The fragment presents a body sherd from the raetic settlement Himmelreich. Between 1932 and 1935 the area was investigated by Dr. Stainer and the sherd is probably one of the discoveries made during these excavations.
The sherd is of fine clay, from grey to dark brown in colour, with a moderate temper of fine grained sand and cast gold. The fragment indicates a reduction firing. On the outside of the sherd could be observed characters which were engraved before firing, according to Sinnhuber 1949: 64, or, according to Schumacher 1992: 216, after firing.
