Commentary

See the inscription page for details about the reading.

Dithematic masculine o-stem personal name. The second element may be u̯īt- 'withe, willow', though this usually occurs as first element in dithematic names. The first element snaśi̯o- (or possibly naśi̯o-, see the inscription page) is unclear. Morandi 2001: 12 (no. 5) and 2004: 604 (no. 120) compares naśi- with VB·3.1 naśom, but the latter is probably a misreading in any case.
