In this inscription the full form of the verb gogotzen, now 
gogoratzen, appears. This is also the Japanese kokoro-su, with the 
same meaning. Rasala is more probably Rusellae in Etruria than 
a woman’s name. The formula zazw erruki is deficient in the last 
syllable.

I do not know what city the Etruscans called Kupego.'’ The

The verb ikusi, to see, follows zazw erruki, and must be translated seeing. The Etruscan 
must have been read kusa, kuso, kusu, rather than kusi. The regular form of the auxiliary 
zuen appears instead of the common VS benu. 
102 No. 57 is amended, according to Fabretti, by the omission of F, which in Lanzi intervenes 
between the second and third groups. 
103 Some difficulty will be found in identifying names of places as they occur on the monu- 
ments, for they certainly must have been other than those given by the Romans if the Etrus- 
cans were an Iberian people If clan be an Etruscan word, such also may Clusium be. But 
Clusium is not Iberian, nor Florentia, nor Trossulum, Caletra, Vulsinii. In the Eugubine 
Tables Luna is Luni, aud Volaterrae has no ¢ nor any connection with the Latin terra: it is 
Baulaherri. Arretium is Aretigi or Aretiag, and the final nia of Vetulonia and Populonia 
appears to be no part of the original. There is no evidence that the Etruscans had the letter 
v, as in Vulsinii, Volaterrae, Vetulonia. Some places in Etruria mentioned by Pliny (H. N., III., 
8) bore Latin names, translations of the originals, such as Castrum Novum, Novem Pagi, Hor- 
tanum, Lucus Feroniw, &e. It is hard to say how far this process of disguising may have 
gone on. A similar process of transformation is taking effect in our own Northwest, where 
Indian names are translated into such uneuphonious English terms as Moose Jaw, Pile of Bones, 
Medicine Hat. But for this process, as applied by the Romans, a study of Etruscan topo- 
graphical names would long since have evidenced the Iberian origin of the peuple of Etruria.
