Commentary

The word is attested twice with the pertinentive ending -le in syntactically unclear inscriptions, though never in the normalised form: In MA-12 it is written with Tau rather than Theta; PA-1 eθsuale is probably a scribal error. Cp. maybe (h)estulanuale in ST-5. In is not clear whether a is part of the stem or of the ending (cp. perkusiale). See further esθua.
