Commentary

Bronze statuette.
Roberti states the proper name Il cavallino (cp. Roberti 1950: 181); Vetter mentions Pferdchen mit Mähne (cp. Vetter 1954: 71) and Pellegrini indicates the name given by Roberti as well as Pferdchen A (cp. Pellegrini 1951: 311). The latter in according to Mayr (cp. Mayr 1951: 30, fig. VII).
Almost the entire group of bronze statuettes from Sanzeno was discovered between 1947 and 1949. The bronzes were found by chance in a sand pit (cp. Pellegrini 1951: 304; Vetter 1954: 66-67).
