Stuff that makes my map look different from other maps:
- Gattiola “find” was an error in reporting, same as Romito Pozzuolo finds
- Campobasso numbers are not consistently reported: at least two likely from general region seems responsible
- It seems likely Fallani is part of Campania (?) and since we don’t have an actual count I just increased my dot size.
I am coming round to a date c. 295, but feel this does not mean we ought to completely throw out a connection–at least in terms of distribution, if not the actual impetus to strike–with the via Appia.
Like Bernard 2018: 153 (fig. 5.4), I’m relying on Vitale 1998 (if you need a PDF scan of the catalogue, happy to share with colleagues) and Burnett and Molinari 2015.
