Commentary
Sanzeno bowl.
Fine clay, light brown in colour, with a moderate temper of fine grained sand and argentine mica; reduction firing; burnished. High neck and the typical omphalos.
In the area of the belly decorations, scratched before firing: four times a group of strokes each with a different number of strokes, alternating between five and eight strokes.
Outside on the lower belly area to the bottom an inscription.
Whatmough, in accord with the notes given by Conway and Von Planta, published three inscriptions on potsherds with the No. 207a, No. 207b and No. 207c (cp. PID: 21). The autopsy however has shown that the latter two objects are complete extant Sanzeno bowls. Cp. the related objects in the present data bank: SZ-27 potsherd, SZ-28 bowl as well as SZ-29 bowl.
Autopsied by the Thesaurus Inscriptionum Raeticarum in November 2013.
