Commentary
Evidently a noun in the plural, being accompanied by the numeral þal. Archaic auslauting a of the plural ending -ra has, as in Etruscan, been lost through apocope. One of only two grammatically marked plurals in the Raetic corpus so far. The word is lexically obscure, no Etruscan cognate is known, but note that the r-plural marks animate nouns.
