Commentary
First published in Bianchetti 1895: 69 (no. 7), 145. Examined for LexLep on 20th April 2024.
Images in Lejeune 1987: pl. XIII (photo = Solinas 1995: tav. LXIXb) and 498, fig. 2 (drawing), Solinas 1995: tav. LXXc (photo), Morandi 1999: pl. IX.1 (photo) = Morandi 2004: tav. X.48), Morandi 2004: 566, fig. 12.48 (drawing).
Main inscription, applied around the shoulder above one of the white painted bands. Lattes 1896 perfect reading, includes stroke under the last and interprets the letter as a variant of san for [χs] as in Voltino saśadis, compares the ending of latumarui to that of the pala-stelae -> 'Naxian wine of Latumaros and Sapsutaipis', inscribed for a libation ritual during the burial. Featured in the genitive vs. dative debate: Kretschmer 1905: 99–101, no. 20, agrees in principle (and notes the absence of /i/ in naśom), but segments sapsutai-pe with enclitic conjunction. Hirt 1905–1907: 564 f. dative (also Hirt 1917: 210 f.), Danielsson 1909: 18 f. in agreement (but, following Torp, doubts the Naxian wine, and interprets the text as a gift inscription), also Rhŷs 1913: 63–67, no. 20 ('to/for Latumaros and Sapsuta Naxian wine', and naxom is "reduced"), but interprets the third-to-last letter as Latin 
with a diacritic understroke to distinguish it from Lepontic (also Rhŷs 1914: 25 f.). Whatmough PID: 111–113, no. 304 (a) same, but judges to be a "normal" form of san (compares MI·1 peśu, which nota bene is petu); notes that the second letter has a superfluous scratch too. Pisani 1964: 286 f., no. 124 (a): marriage gift. Something different: Tibiletti Bruno 1975: 55 latuśarui, reading Latin as san; in greater detail Tibiletti Bruno 1978: 144–146 also uinoś natoś as acc.pl. 'to L. and S. beautiful children', Tibiletti Bruno 1981: 162–164, no. 10: must be san because Lepontic mu looks different (...), stroke below is unintentional (in agreement Pellegrini 1983: 36 f.). Lejeune 1971: 74–76 draws attention to the hierarchy of separators and highlights final -m as a Lepontic feature; reads san for [ksi̯] following Lattes. In greater detail Lejeune 1987: 495–504, suggesting that the text may be metrical, and arguing against TB (also Solinas 1995: 375, no. 128, on naśom and ps in sapsutai). Morandi 1999: 172, no. 17 suggests that the four short inscriptions are the names of the people who gave the gift and points out that it's a one-person grave, so the inscription can't be connected with the funeral, but was probably buried with one of the two recipients (also Morandi 2004: 550–552, no. 48 A, who prefers natom).
