Bossed bone plaque from Castiglione

From the marks legible on the object ("TR6", "T.1"), the plaque is most likely attributable to a funerary context (trench/sector 6, tomb 1) within the Castiglione necropolis; this is an indicative reading, to be verified against the original excavation records held by the competent institution.

Origin: Castiglione
Period: Bronzo siciliano
