ITALIC TOMB-GROUPS: NARCE 7F
the arch of bronze wire, the larger, which is broken, has a
circular smoothed area with central hole for inlay.
56. Two Pins from Fibulae. Pl. XXXVII. M.S.
1248f, L. 0.067 m. and 0.059 m.
57. Three Catches of Fibulae. PI. XXXVII•
M.S.1248g, L. 0.028 m., 0.028 m. and 0.029 m. In all
three are preserved fragments of the pins and enough
of the arc to show that they were strung with amber
beads.
COMPARANDA
1. For a similar openwork rosette, cf. a vase support
in the Louvre from Caere, Montelius, PI. 379, 11 ( -
Martha, Hart etrusque, pp. 459 and 464, Fig. 301); and
Berlin 1635, Jdl. 1900, p. 161, Fig. 5, a combined sup-
port and bowl with a cover ornamented with gryphon
heads. For round struts with transverse stripes cf.
Montelius, PI. 319, 5 from a Narce trench-tomb, Barna-
bei’s Tomb XLIX (= MonAnt. IV, cols. 494 and 495,
No. 33) from which came a fragmentary oinochoe,
Montelius, PL 319, 2, with interlacing palmettes com-
parable to those on bronze fragments with openwork
decoration from the Regolini-Galassi Tomb, Montelius,
PI. 339, 10 and 11, and a bowl, Montelius, PL 319, 3,
with interlacing arcs comparable to those on No. 27 from
Narce 64 B, PI. XXXVIII, and to the interlacing loops
which border silver strips from the Bernardini Tomb,
MAAR. Ill, Pis. 31 and 32.
2. With the wide spacing of the channelling, cf. No. 2
from Narce 64 B, PI. XXXVIII, and No. 1 from Narce
21, PL XL.
3. The step pattern on the flaring top was a popular
motive in the seventh century, An. X—XII, p. 119, Fig.
99; p. 165, Fig. 176; p. 300, Fig. 398; p. 169, Fig. 186; p.
330, Fig. 431; p. 192, Fig. 212, from Arkades; Jdl. 1887,
p. 46, Fig. 5, a Protoattic jug from Athens; AeXT. II,
p. 39, Fig. 38, 2, another Protoattic jug; Hesp. II, p.
588, Fig. 50, 198 on a Protoattic sherd from the Agora,
CVA. Berlin I, Pl. 3, 2, PL 15, 2, PL 25, etc. For up-
raised hands with widespread fingers, see Hesp. II, pp.
605 and 607, Figs. 72 and 73, and BSA. XXXV, Pis. 48
and 49. For a man between horses with long rope-like
arms, see CVA. Copenhagen, PL 73, 4a. For the repre-
sentation of galloping horses, see HespSup. II, pp. 184
and 185, Fig. 134, C 145, dated to the middle of the
seventh century. With the birds, cf. CVA. Berlin I, Pl.
9, A 19 and p. 15, Fig. 2. The use of lines of dots to
enforce the contours of figures is known in contemporary
metal-work, cf. MAAR. V, PL 27, 1 and Pl. 28 and
Montelius, PL 295, 3.
5. For squares filled with intersecting diagonals and
parallel chevrons, cf. the vase-carrier from Barnabei’s
Tomb XLIX, Montelius, PL 319, 5, already cited, and
that from Narce 4 F, No. 1, Pl. XII, which has also a base
built in two tiers.
7. For arrow-shaped perforations, cf. No. 1 from
Narce 2 F, PL XXXIII; No. 1 from Narce 105 F, PL
XXV; and Richter, Etruscan Handbook, Fig. 6.
12. Cf. MonAnt. XV, PL XVIII, 3 and col. 330 from
a well-tomb near Marino.
13. The shape, the handle, the white pattern, the
rippled shoulder are repeated on the bowls, Nos. 4-8 from
Narce 27 M, Pl. XIII. See also the comparanda cited
under these numbers.
20. Cf. Nos. 17 and 18 from Narce 2, Pl. XXVII, and
the comparanda cited under these numbers.
21. Craticula or supports for spits are common, both
in bronze and iron, e.g. MonAnt. IV, PL XII, 21 and p.
393 (= Montelius, PL 308, 13) from Tomb XLIII,
Falerii; Montelius, PL 179, 11 from the Circoli di
Cerrecchio, Vetulonia; MAAR. Ill, PL 55 (= Montelius,
Pl. 366, 17) from the Bernardini Tomb; Montelius, PL
240, 15 from Orvieto; etc.
22. Cf. Montelius, PL 240, 8 from Orvieto; id., PL 221,
8 from Chiusi; and id., Pl. 179, 11 from the Circoli di
Cerrecchio, Vetulonia; Montelius, PL 308, 3, from Falerii.
23. Cf. MonAnt. IV, Pl. XI, 7 (= Montelius, PL 317,
11) from Tomb XXIX, Narce; Montelius, PL 308, 12;
StEtr. V, Pl. XXXI, 5, and p. 578, from a trench-tomb,
Tarquinii.
25. Cf. No. 17 from Narce 2 F, Pl. XXXIV; MonAnt.
IV, Pl. XI, 11 (= Montelius, PL 308, 11); Montelius, Pl.
277, 9 from Tarquinii. Marsiliana, PL XLV, 4, from
Tomb LXXXIX; MonAnt. XV, Pl. XV, 1 and 5 from
Rome. For a Hallstatt example of a sword the pommel
of which is ornamented with a volute see MittAnthGes.
Wien, 1900, p. 45, Fig. 1. Aberg, p. 95, is doubtless
right in ascribing to this type of sword an Adriatic origin.
26. Cf. No. 16 from Narce 109 F, Pl. VIII; MonAnt.
IV, col. 376 and PL X, 29 from Tomb X, Montarano.
A similarly ornamented disk but of bronze and of smaller
dimensions was found in Tomb 8, Visentium, MonAnt.
XXI, col. 443, Fig. 32, where it was taken to be the
head of a hair-pin, but since in the same tomb, id. col.
445, No. 6, were found the remnants of blades, it seems
likely that these disks with a disk of wood (?) between
them were parts of swords, either pommels or guards.
27. Cf. No. 23 from Narce 105 F, Pl. XXIV, and the
comparanda cited under this number.
28. Cf. RM. 1907, p. 107, LXX, and p. 112, LXXXII,
where similar rods are called arrows, and Argive Heraeum
II, p. 300 ff. and Pis. CXXVII and CXXVIII.
