Rupescissa

Meaning

Rupescissa occurs as a name in the main treatise's introductory catalogue. The supplied English preserves it. Its local function is to contribute to the series of reputed authorities and possessors whose number and distinction support the art's credibility. No particular book, biography or claim is attached to this name in the unit. The catalogue alone therefore does not establish a historical identification in detail or verify practical possession of the stone; it records how the anonymous treatise presents its lineage of authority.
