Commentary

See the inscription page on the uncertain reading.

Personal name in the dative; for the base see at(t)-. Cf. multiple attestations of atta in Delamarre 2007: ? – one of these is a potter's name and thus probably masculine, but the Cisalpine Celtic attestation is best identified as feminine (see the inscription page).
