“…Devine & Stephens 2006: 145), possibly suggesting that final position was the unmarked position for a verb, and thus a suitable place for a contracted clitic verb. Finally, the contracted form is normally avoided when the verb breaks a strong syntactic bond (as when it is placed between a noun and its modifier; on this see Fortson 2008: 134–75).…”

The paper analyses the contraction of est (‐st). This phenomenon is generally known as ‘prodelision’ or ‘aphaeresis’ and is considered a metrical sandhi phenomenon, graphically expressed only in early Latin texts. After the introduction (1), the paper presents the first systematic collection of the evidence for this form (2), followed by a phonological discussion (3), and by the conclusions (4), which aim to show that this was a more complex and widespread phenomenon than is normally believed, and to introduce its significance for other general linguistic topics such as cliticisation, the semantics of sum, and the position of the Latin verb in the clause.1

“…In this case, it would be necessary to recognize the Etruscan language as Indo-European, even the late Hittite dialect, as V. Georgiev did 75 . In point of fact, Etruscan language is agglutinative in morphology, which is one of the signs of non-Indo-European languages 76 ; therefore, today only a few scientists support Indo-Europeanism of Etruscan language 77 . Anyway, it should be explained how this word was borrowed by the hypothetical ancestors of the Etruscans from the Hittite language and recognized the eastern origin of the Etruscans, that also encounters certain difficulties, for example, localizing the ancestral home or linking such a concept with modern views on ethnogenesis.…”

The author examines the inscription from Montepulciano, outskirts of Clusium (today Chiusi) (cippus Bucellius), where the Greek Dorian term was mentioned, which means a military colonist. Taking in consideration previous researches, the author tries to prove prescription of cippus Bucellius as a boundary; explain earlier date of the inscription (earlier 3rd, not 2nd centuries BC); represent own explanation of discussion terms, namely, ser is considered as reduction of the praenomen servei; hilar is determined as a plot of land; claruχieś is seen as a genitive case of term which means a military colonist-mercenary, created like the personal Etruscan names.
