Commentary
First published in De Giuli 1978: 15. Examined for LexLep on 20th April 2024.
Images in De Giuli 1978: 19 (photo = De Giuli 1979: 249, fig. 4 = Mainardis 2009: 337, fig. 5) and 15 (drawing = De Giuli 1979: 249), Caramella & De Giuli 1993: 208 (drawing).
Inscribed in two centered lines in the upper area of the stela (length line 1 31.5 cm, line 2 54.5 cm; distance from top 22.5 cm). The script is Latin; some of the letters feature serifs.
The text is a Latinised name formula with individual name and filiation; both names are etymologically Celtic (see the word pages). Cf. Tibiletti Bruno 1979: 263 f., Tibiletti Bruno 1981: 168 f., no. 15b, De Giuli 1979: 245, 251, Caramella & De Giuli 1993: 208 f., Morandi 2004; 565, no. 68.
See the object page on the dating. Morandi 2004: 565 dates the inscription to the first half of the 1st century BC, probably to match his dating of VB·24, but this seems too early. Based on the stela shape, absence of a frame and Latin alphabet without Lepontic influence, VB·25 belongs to the latest layer of the attested Verbano gravestones.
