Commentary

First published in Pernet et al. 2006: 229. Examined for LexLep on 20th July 2021.

Image in Pernet et al. 2006: 233, fig. 6.39 = pl. sub 146.1? (drawing).

Inscribed on the foot of the bowl in tidy, well legible letters (length ca. 3 cm). Final upsilon is comparatively tall and slightly offset due to the curving of the rim. The form is a Celtic on-stem personal name in the nominative; see the word page for details.
