Inscribed in two parts on what appears to be the back side of the little votive shield. The first and longer sequence is written in a half-circle along the rim on lower end of the shield (opposite the hole), facing outward. It measures about 13 cm, starting and ending very neatly at the same level (about halfway along the length of the shield). The shorter sequence is inscribed in the same "line", but at a considerable distance from the first group, at the upper end just before and over the hole (length 3.5 cm). The lines are very thin, but all in all well visible. | |||
The longer sequence is fairly neatly executed, although the curve led to some minor problems for the writer. {{c||Φ3}} and {{c||E}} are clear. The next element appears to be a ligature {{c||LT}}: The hasta features both a bar {{c||line d 001}} on the right and a dot on top. The dot is executed the same way as the other dots in the inscription (in the separators and {{c||T4}}), i.e. as a small patch with the upper layer of material carefully scraped off. The bar of Lambda being turned against writing direction must be taken as indicating the order in which the elements of the ligature are to be read, i.e. {{p||l}}{{p||t}}. (See below.) It is unclear why just these two letters are ligated, and not also for example Lambda and Digamma a little further on in the same way. See [[index::Script]] on ligatures in Raetic. {{c||U2}} features a little bar {{c||line d 2000}} extending from its right hasta, but a reading {{c||A2|d}} can be excluded by comparison with secure {{c||A4}}. ({{bib|PID|Whatmough}} somewhat randomly interpreted the bar of {{c||L2|d}} and the abovementioned scratch as punctuation marks.) {{c||I}}{{c||S|d}}{{c||E}}{{c||I}}{{c||R2}} is unambiguous, the letters becoming successively smaller in the curve. The dots making up the separator are very distinct, being small patches scratched off the surface rather than just indentations. Resuming with bigger letters, now increasing in size: {{c||N}}{{c||I}}{{c||V}}{{c||L2}}{{c||E}}{{c||Φ3}} is clear. The area around {{c||U2}} in the lefthand side curve is damaged by scratches, some unintentional, some maybe stemming from some incertitude on the part of the writer, but {{c||U2}} can be identified without doubt. Following inverted {{c||A4}} may probably also be rated as a mistake due to having to write in a curve; maybe the writer turned the object around to be able to steady his hand on the object.

The shorter sequence is much less tidily inscribed. After {{c||U2}}, a wiggly line with a dot on top, executed exactly like the dots making up the separator, is certainly {{c||T4}}. The line {{c||I}}, also skew, is prolonged in the bottom, probably a slip if the tool – a short horizontal scratch crossing it in the place where it's supposed to end is probably an effort of the writer to make his intention clear.

Inscribed in two parts on what appears to be the back side of the little votive shield. The first and longer sequence is written in a half-circle along the rim on lower end of the shield (opposite the hole), facing outward. It measures about 13 cm, starting and ending very neatly at the same level (about halfway along the length of the shield). The shorter sequence is inscribed in the same "line", but at a considerable distance from the first group, at the upper end just before and over the hole (length 3.5 cm).

The interpretation of the inscription is unproblematic: a standard Raetic name formula in the pertinentive case, followed by a deverbal form in -u. The individual name φelturie has a parallel in SZ-14 φeliturie. Concerning the relation of the two parts of the inscription to each other: A supplementary addition of utiku might explain its displacement from the name formula, but despite the sloppier execution, the similarity of how the dots were made indicates the same writer.
