This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1905 Excerpt: ...as shown by other inscriptions. Thus if we suppose the former to mean 'writing' (in our case 'epitaph'), the two meanings would not agree. The words acn--acasce certainly appear to introduce, so to speak, that which is said in the ensuing lines, which doubtless contain an enumeration of the sacerdotal offices performed by the deceased. zi% no doubt governs the genitive ned-sras. This latter form I take to be a plural one. The corresponding sing, would be ned-s. Now there is a word netsvis, which occurs in the bilingual inscription of Pesaro, Fa. 69, and certainly means 'haruspex', since it seems to correspond with the haruspex of the Latin text. We also find it, somewhat differently written, in Fa. 560 ter h (netsvis). The word is evidently a compound, and its first component nets agrees, except in the fact of the dental not being aspirated, with the form neds inferred above. What this word ned-s (nets, nets) means it is not possible to decide. At any rate, it does not correspond with the Latin haru-in haruspex. We might rather guess at some sort of sacrifice. Thus the meaning of the passage would be 'he held (as an office) this (ancn) presenting of ned-s (viz. as follows)'. IV. etera and connected words.
