Inscribed on the bottom of the patera.

Commentary

Image in Frontini 1985: 190, tav. 24.3 (drawing).

Inscribed on the bottom of the patera. Solinas reads sp̣t and suggests a "[s]cheletro consonantico di un nome proprio" like sapsuta; Morandi observes "tre lettere di dubbia classificazione". Indeed it is uncertain whether the inscription is alphabetically Lepontic or Latin; initial sigma is clear, St Andrew's cross at the end could be Lepontic /t/ as well as Latin /x/. The letter in the middle looks like retrograde upsilon in Frontini's drawing.
