Commentary
First published in Schumacher 1994: 315 ff. Non vidi.
Images in Gempeler 1976: Abb. 11b (photo and drawing), Schumacher 1994: 316 (drawing based on the one in Gempeler 1976 = Schumacher 2004: Taf. 17,1 = LIR).
Inscribed on the upper side of the bronze's base; length about 2.8 cm. Schumacher 1994 describes the inscription as follows: A hasta, damaged on top by corrosion, followed by a bar which does not touch it – or ? Then another hasta damaged in the middle, probably . The next letters are fairly well legible. The final letter is read as a small by Schumacher, based on the observation that the area above it is not corroded. The photo in Gempeler, however, does appear to show a damage; this in combination with the arbitrary smallness of and linguistic considerations – maybe an individual name in -e as in HU-5.1? – makes a reading more likely (cp. LIR).
The forms of Lambda demonstrates the inscription to be written in the Sanzeno alphabet; the inscription should be considered part of the subcorpus of the Sanzeno votive inscriptions on bronzes (as done in LIR), even though the provenance of the object cannot be verified.
