TRESCHIETTO
Bagnone (MS)
Brought to light on 7 July 1969 during the works to
enlarge the cemetery of Treschietto, in the town of Bagnone.
We have here a feminine stelae-statue, acephalous, possessing breasts
represented in veristic style even down to a nod in the nipples. It has a
geometric, spiked form, with a strong neck wearing a neck ornament formed by
rings composed of parallel bands.
This type of ornament, also present in the stelae-statues of Sorano
II, can be compared with the metal amulets used in the first phase of the
Bronze Age.
