Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
Since 1882 a fragment of a mensa ponderaria has been known from Bregenz. In 1899 a capital was also discovered there, which was first deemed to have been a reworking into a water basin. Together with a further, comparable piece from recent excavations, however, they belong to stone capacity measures which, as the mensa ponderaria, were produced from architectural elements. The metrological characteristics of these newly documented objects seem to have served to determine the volumes of 6 sextarii of oil, 8 librae or 1 semodius of barley, 50 librae of wheat, as well as 1 amphora of wine and can be compared with examples from the second half of the 1st century AD.
