Commentary
Personal name, probably in the nominative, but possibly abbreviated. The prefix eχs- 'out (of)' (dissimilated es- before the following guttural; cf. Raybould & Sims-Williams 2009: 154) and the verb king- 'step, stride' form a probably lexical verbal compound *esking- 'step out, attack' → 'foot-soldier, warrior', attested in Gaulish personal names, e.g., excingus, excingius; see KGP: 212; GPN: 177, 202 f., DLG: 169, Stüber 2005: 95 f., Meid 2005: 174, Delamarre 2007: 99 f., Stüber et al. 2009: 269. If the form is complete, two interpretations are possible (Marchesini & Stifter 2018: 147):
1. Latinised on-stem eskingō, cf. Gaul. excingo (Raybould & Sims-Williams 2009: 154).
2. o-stem eskikos with loss of final -/s/, cf. Gaul. excingus (Raybould & Sims-Williams 2009: 154f.).
Alternatively, eskiko could be an abbreviation of the longer compound eskikorikos, which is attested at the same necropolis. es, also at the same find place, may be an abbreviation of the name / either of the names.
