Commentary
See the inscription page on the uncertain reading.
Probably an abbreviation of a personal name, though Pisani 1964: 284 proposed that it stands for *kutu, a name for a vessel borrowed via Etruscan qutun from Gr. κώθων. Cf. maybe (uncertain) VR·5 kutsiu. Tibiletti Bruno 1978: 146 suggests that the sequence could be an abbreviation of the (not evidently Celtic) name cut(t)ius (AcS I: 1208 f.), cf. especially the family name CIL V 6000a cutius in Milano. On names in kut(t)- see also GPN: 465, and Gambari & Colonna 1988: 134, n. 63, on Etruscan comparanda, for which they suggest a potential connection with kott- 'old'. See also Solinas 1995: 342, Morandi 2004: 618.
