Acquired in Germany before 2000. English private collection.
This object belongs to impasto ceramics of red-brown typology, and it was probably an unfinished votive foot. It could have been part of a medium-size statuette, or an anatomical ex voto related to a temple deposit, linked with a health divinity. We have parallels in Veii, Vulci and in the whole of the Latial area. -
