Early Etruscan Inscriptions: Fabretti 2343-2346 — George Hempl. In this study, George Hempl surveys three of the earliest Etruscan inscriptions cataloged by Fabretti (2343–2346) and uses them to argue that early Etruscan can scarcely be distinguished from Old Latin. He outlines the linguistic background, explains the transcription conventions, stress notation, and phonetic readings, and discusses how Etruscan developed from an Italic stage closely related to Latin. The work analyzes the texts preserved on friezes from ancient tombs near Corneto-Tarquinii, notes Greek influence on several names, and offers readings and translations for the inscriptions 2343 and 2344, and the two-part 2345–2346 that deals with funeral rites and the ritual burning context. The reader is introduced to key linguistic phenomena, such as metathesis, loss of final vowels, and the evolution of numeral forms, with examples like Veca@ and Xermupi and Tarentum-like forms. An apparatus explains the notation and reconstructible forms; a note discusses the meter of 2345–2346. The work contributes to debates on Indo-European connections and early Italic philology.
