Commentary

Etruscan patronym/gentilicium in -na in the genitive -s. The underlying personal name Etr. *katakie is argued to be a loan from Celtic by De Simone 1978b (also 1978: 386, 1980: 201), who compares Gaul. katakius, katakus, and Ven. katakos. Critical Prosdocimi 1986e: 88 f. and 1987: 574 f.; see also Solinas 1994: 932 f., Sassatelli 2008: 335 f.
