Commentary
The fragmentary sequence cannot be analysed grammatically or etymologically, but a personal name is likely. -akur- does not appear in names in any other Cisalpine Celtic inscriptions; it does occur in names from Continental Celtic contexts, such as RIG L-18 dacurdus, the potter's name acurio (Osw. 3), and assorted names in cacur- (AcS I: 668 f., DLG: 96 – from cacu- '?') and sacur- (AcS II: 1283, secondary from sacro-?), though none of them are obviously Gaulish. Cf. also the (possibly Germanic) theonym CIL XIII 8166, 8167 bacurdo (Köln). See also Tibiletti Bruno 1969b: 204, Morandi 2004: 624.
