Commentary
Bottom with omphalos of a bowl, probably Sanzeno type.
Fine clay from brown to black in colour, with a moderate temper of fine grained sand and cast gold.
Stamped decoration in the area of the fracture visible.
Characters in the centre of the omphalos (WE-6.1) and at two positions around the omphalos (WE-6.2 and WE-6.3).
The fragment is until now unpublished. In the here available data bank about the raetic inscriptions the potsherd is the first time mentioned.
