The variant {{c||Ś}} is the standard form of San in Raetic; {{c||Ś2}}, typical for the Lugano corpus (see [http://www.univie.ac.at/lexlep/wiki/%C5%9A LexLep]), occurs only once in the epigraphically peculiar [[index::PU-1]]. {{c||Ś3}} is never securely attested as a letter, but only as part of a factory mark in [[index::Bostel]]. Its attestation in a [[index::SR-9|language-encoding inscription]] is highly dubious. Inverted forms are not attested.

San is generally assumed to write a marked sibilant ([ʃ] vel sim.), as it does in the Venetic writing tradition (see [[index::Script]]); hence the transliteration with ''ś''. The inscriptions from [[index::San Giorgio di Valpolicella]] may represent an exception: San occurs three times, Sigma never; San might be argued to write {{p||s}} in [[index::VR-14]]. See also [[index::Z]] for evidence of the influence of Etruscan writing in the area of Verona.

The variant Ś s is the standard form of San in Raetic; Ś2 s, typical for the Lugano corpus (see Lexicon Leponticum: Ś), occurs only once in the epigraphically peculiar PU-1. Ś3 s is never securely attested as a letter, but only as part of a factory mark in Bostel. Its attestation in a language-encoding inscription is highly dubious. Inverted forms are not attested.

San is generally assumed to write a marked sibilant ([ʃ] vel sim.), as it does in the Venetic writing tradition (see Script); hence the transliteration with ś. The inscriptions from San Giorgio di Valpolicella may represent an exception: San occurs three times, Sigma never; San might be argued to write s in VR-14. See also Z for evidence of the influence of Etruscan writing in the area of Verona.
