Description
Abstract (cited)
This paper examines several hitherto neglected divinities attested in Latin votive inscriptions, mostly found in central Spain: Suttunius, Velonsa, Nevara, Duillae, Airo, but also in the western regions: Ulisus Tereun(icus), Lumbae, Poltucea, Uladus and Nituceus. An etymological note on Gaulish Sucellus is included. These divine names are interesting from the point of view of etymology but also pose some questions about Indo-European and Celtic verb and noun inflection.
