Digamma , or Etrufcan V, above-mentioned. ( 1 5) Mr. 
Havercamp’s denarius, as well as mine, and that de- 
fcribed by M. Morel, fets the point here infilled upon 
beyond difpute. 
From the foregoing obfervations we may colled:, 
that our infcription, in Roman, or modem Latin, 
letters, will be FITEEIVR, or VITEEIVR ; 
which, in the cacography of the Etrufcans, as their 
rude and uncouth manner of writing is termed by 
Sig. Pafferi (16), feems to anfwer to the VETVRI, 
or rather VETVRI VS, of the Romans. If this be 
admitted, it will be allowed extremely probable, that 
the name of the general, who commanded the Marli 
in the Italian war, was FITEEIVR, VIFEEIVR, 
or VETVRIVS, and neither VETTIVS nor IN- 
STEIVS, as Sig. Annibale degli Abati Olivieri feems 
inclinable (17) to believe. This general is called 
Vettiils, or C. Vettius, by ( 18) Claudius Quadrigarius ; 
Infteius, or Infteius Cato, by ( 19) Velleius ; 'O vinos 
Karoor, Vetius Cato, by (20) Appian; P. Vettius, or 
P. Vettius Scato, by (21) Cicero ; Vellius, or Vellius 
Cato, by (22) "Florus ; and T. Vettius, T. Vetius, 
T. Vetitius, and T. Vietius, in different manufcripts
