Epsilon with four strokes is well attested between the Valtellina and the Val Camonica; in Lepontic area it is attested in the coin legend [[index::NM·6]] {{w||seχeθu}} ({{bib|Morandi 1999}}: 154, see also fn. 11 (inscription in [[Castaneda]] (?)). Regarding the "zig-zag" cf. [[index::NO·1]] and {{bib|Morandi 1999}}: 153-154, fn. 12.

Inscribed on the bottom of the beaker below the edge of the shoulder. The implausible reading ''mχme'' goes back to Whatmough. {{bib|Morandi 2004}} classifies the scratching as a pseudo-inscription, its zig-zag elements being comparable to the non-script section of [[NO·1]] (see also {{bib|Morandi 1999}}: 154). That the inscription is at least script-adjacent is also indicated by the only plausible letter shape, epsilon {{c||E8|d}} with four bars, which is attested in the coin legend [[NM·6]], and otherwise more commonly in the Camunic alphabets, e.g. on the [[GR·3|Castaneda flagon]] from the same area and timeframe as the Gudo beaker.

Commentary

First mentioned in PID: n. XV.

Images in Stöckli 1975: 17 f., fig. 11, Solinas 1995: 327 (drawing), Morandi 1999: 154, fig. 2 (drawing = Morandi 2004: 525, fig. 8.2) and 188, pl. I.1&2 (photos).

Inscribed on the bottom of the beaker below the edge of the shoulder. The implausible reading mχme goes back to Whatmough. Morandi 2004 classifies the scratching as a pseudo-inscription, its zig-zag elements being comparable to the non-script section of NO·1 (see also Morandi 1999: 154). That the inscription is at least script-adjacent is also indicated by the only plausible letter shape, epsilon E8 d with four bars, which is attested in the coin legend NM·6, and otherwise more commonly in the Camunic alphabets, e.g. on the Castaneda flagon from the same area and timeframe as the Gudo beaker.
