ETRURIA CAPTA, 205 
248. AVLE : VLOE - FELNA 
rapi sune pisa mone aginsakara 
arpi zuen Pisa amona aginza akar 
behold ye who Pisa’s mother offering bears®? 
The only word to noté is amona, a dignified name for mother. 
Pisa must be a feminine name. 
322, ADNO artukamo artugomu 
LADIC : CALEC aratu utzi chirasa nechi zarratu hitz Chirasa nechi 
holds memory written word Chirasa’s daughter 
The word for daughter is now nesca, a less dignified term than 
alaba. 1 have read IC as hvtz, word. In the Eugubine Table itz 
is represented by K. 
266. OVMVNEL mopinopi kanio Mopinopi ganio 
8VLNI alpisa kau alabichi kiko 
Mopinopi it concerns, daughter for.% 
The postposition kaw occurs frequently in the Eugubine Tables, as 
in eman dio pabe kau, give he him does help for, where it can mean 
nothing else than for. It is thus the Etruscan representative of the 
modern Basque kiko.* 
269. AO - Cp rama chitu erama Chitu 
ES AE nenobane ne nebi ne 
AATAS rabaurano arreba hau rano 
it brings Chitune brother to sister his towards 
Freely—tt brings to Chitune’s brother the memory of his sister.® 
There are two new words here. The first is erama from the Basque 
verb eraman, cause to give, or bring. The second is noba, now nebia, 
brother, although anai, anaya is the commoner form. 
92 Fabretti inserts an archaic S between zuen and Pisa. This will make the name Nopisa. 
Ekarrv should read akar, as dakar is the 3 sing. pres. ind. of ekarri. Etruscan does not pre- 
fix the d. 
98 Lanzi represents this inscription, which is boustrophedon, with the lower line upside 
down. Fabretti reverses the order by inverting the upper line. He also gives instead of V in 
the lower line a heart-shaped figure. 
94 T have been asked how I get kaw or, following the analogy of the verbal termination, kio, 
out of kiko, which is supposed to have been originally kinko. I do uot assert that they are the 
same words, but that a resurrected Etruscan would replace his kio by the Basque kiko, The 
Iroquois uses ke to signify “ for.” 
% In Fabretti the S of line 2 and A of line 3 are irrecognizable. The word noba is disap- 
pointing in form. Nebia, the modern word, would be better represented by EV. It has few 
near relations, the closest being the Georgian muchbe and the Choctaw nakysi, the brother of a 
sister.
