This cinerary olla, from Tomb F of the Molinello Tumulus in Asciano and dating between the 3rd and 1st century BCE, is crafted from common ceramic with a red glaze applied inside, traces of which remain on the outer surface. An Etruscan inscription, “au. marcni. felusnal,” appears on the body of the olla, likely referring to the deceased or their family. Preserved at the Museo Palazzo Corboli in Asciano, this piece provides insight into Etruscan funerary culture and epigraphic tradition.
