Commentary
Bronze statuette.
Roberti states the proper name Il cavallo marino (cp. Roberti 1950: 180); Vetter mentions Oberleib eines Pferdchens (cp. Vetter 1954: 71) and in consequence Pellegrini indicates the proper name made by Roberti as well as Pferdchenrumpf (cp. Pellegrini 1951: 311).
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).
Further reference probably more related to the inscription: Mayr 1951: 30, fig. VI.
