    ANALYSIS
    Description Two parallel, horizontal lines traverse the tiny fragment at top. There seems to be a short cross bar inside the double lines. Whether there is an opening in the center of this bar, as indicated on AG 1980, pl. 55, cannot be determined from the digital photo.

    Identification Not enough remains of this fragment to determine the nature of the architecture depicted.

    Significance 3D digital matching may allow us to join this fragment to already identified and located areas on the Plan.

    HISTORY OF FRAGMENT
    The provenance of this fragment is unknown (PM 1960, p. 149). Since its publication, it has presumably been stored with the other known FUR fragments in various places: the Capitoline Museums (1939-1955), the Palazzo Braschi (1955-1998), and since 1998 in the Museo della Civiltà Romana in EUR under the auspices of the Sovraintendenza ai Beni Culturali del Comune di Roma.
