Commentary

Fragment of a bronze sieve funnel with handle. The object was first published in Franz 1958: Eine Inschrift aus Cles, in: Der Schlern 32, 39f. In succession of Franz, Mayr has mentioned it for a second time (Mayr 1960f: 389). The fragment was discovered by Leonard Franz, the curator at the museum at that time, amongst the old stock of the Tyrolean State Museum Ferdinandeum (Tiroler Landesmuseum Ferdinandeum). The object has come in the property of the museum 1898. The condition of the object is fragmentary and moreover partially damaged. Although the condition of the object the decorations on the handle and in part on the rim could be observed. In addtion the inscription is well readable.
For one further reference see Zemmer et al. 1985: 166 (Kat.-Nr. 40).
