Die Ratischen Inschriften: Geschichte Und Heutiger Stand Der Forschung (Main Series) (German Edition) Stefan Schumacher German edition

This volume deals with the pre-Roman inscriptions written in the Sanzeno alphabet originating mostly from former Tyrol, commonly called Raetic (a term problematic in many respects). The author first gives an outline of the research history, then a detailed description of the inscribed objects in their archaeological context, and an exact transliteration of the inscriptions themselves. This important study which for the first time unites all extant inscriptions is a first step towards a very much needed Corpus Inscriptionum Raeticarum. German text.
