The sequence ''-ou'' is perhaps a spelling for the Celt. ending ''-ū'' of the nom. sg. of the on-stems. Either, this originally monophthongic ending developed really into the diphthong /-ou̯/, or the spelling is an orthographic compromise between the vernacular ending ''-ū'' and the Latinised ending ''-ō''. Cp. the legend ''coppou'' beside ''coppo'' on Noric coins.

Commentary

See the inscription page on the reading.

The incomplete sequence is most likely a personal name with base u̯os- and suffix -(i)i̯-; the last preserved letter upsilon could represent the on-stem nominative -ū or, typologically more likely, the beginning of the o-stem dative ending -ūi̯. Delamarre 2007: 235, 237) lists the onomastic element u̯osso- as an (archaic) variant of u̯asso- 'servant', but considering the high dating of the inscription the dental element would be expected to be spelled with san reflecting tau gallicum not yet assimilated to /ss/. See also Salomon 2024: 149 f.
