Commentary

Occurring twice, once on a bronze handle, once on an iron knife. Pellegrini 1951: 316 thinks of a factory mark or a number; Schumacher 2004: 299 f. suggests a factory mark in the pertinentive -si, with the manufacturer's name shortened ('[made] in the workshop of S(?)χ*') (cp. also IR: 272). We do not know enough about the practice of forging in Sanzeno to judge whether the same smith or smithy would have produced both bronze and iron implements, but the fact that the iron object is a knife rather than a sword as originally asserted by Pellegrini increases the probability of the two objects coming from the same factory.
