Italian term or phrase: incisi a freddo
This is from an article on funeral rites and grave goods.

L’olla n. 17 chiusa dalla coppa-grattugia n. 18, presenta un’iscrizione in caratteri latini ***incisi a freddo***, che sembrerebbe attestare la deposizione nello stesso ossuario di un individuo femminile e uno maschile: Ostia Samnio.

I've found "cold engraved" but I'm not too sure about it. I'd appreciate any help with it. TIA
