Commentary
First published in Morandi 2001: 13, no. 7. Examined for LexLep on 30th April 2022.
Images in Morandi 2001: 13, no. 7 (drawing), Morandi 2004: 603, fig. 16.119 (drawing) and tav. XVIII.119 (photo).
Inscribed upside-down on the bottom of the patera near the rim of the foot (length 2.5 cm). Nu, whose form is difficult to judge due to the absence of a straight baseline in the inscription, could also be classified as Latin 
; influence from Latin can certainly be argued with regard to the large angle formed by the bars (cf. VA·20 from the same grave). The sinistroverse writing direction precludes a classification of the inscription's alphabet as Latin (but note that other attestations of uin° (MI·16, NO·12, NO·17.2) are all written in the Latin alphabet).
The sequence can be interpreted as a Celtic masculine personal name in the genitive (thus Morandi; see the word page for details).
