Commentary

Marstrander 1925: 51 f., expecting a Celtic name, compared Serrancu in CIL XIII, 90 and read a nom.sg.m. n-stem Celtic PN in -u containing *sīr- 'long, lasting, constant'. For objections see Markey 2001: 110 f., who reads Celtic *Siragu < *Sīr-agō(n) 'astral priest' with a Celtic vrddhied composition form *sīr- 'star' + nom.sg. n-stem *agō(n) 'priest'.

Compared with a Scythian PN *Sirakō by Altheim & Trautmann 1939: 43 (evidence see there).
