See the inscription page on issues with the reading.
If correct, the sequence is a personal name derived from the base ritu- with the suffix -il(l)-. This is irregular insofar as the suffix variant expected to appear with an u-stem is -ul(l)- (cf. ritulla in Noricum, Delamarre 2007: 154), but the vowel does not always correspond to the stem vowel of the base (and an o-stem variant of the base also exists). Rubat Borel & Paccolat 2008: 131 compares retilius (CIL V 4753, Brescia) and retillos (CIL XII 4139), but the base lacks the phonetic context for a raising of /e/ to /i/ (but see )iponia). The ending may be -o with apocope of final /s/, unless sigma did follow in the fragmentary inscription. Due to the missing context, it cannot be excluded that the form is a patronym in -(i)i̯o-.
