Usage notes

The term bears the ending -πŒ„πŒ (-eΓ­), which is found in other dative singular terms in South Picene. However, the term has also been interpreted as a locative singular based on the semantic context of the text. If South Picene did have a locative singular ending -πŒ„πŒ (-eΓ­), it would not be inconsistent with the rest of the Italic evidence.
