Excerpt from The Celtic Inscriptions of Cisalpine Gaul
I. Lugano and the country immediately surrounding it in the Canton Ticino. And there, having begun with a tombstone bearing two inscriptions of a philologically instructive nature, and having described them, I append some account of the treatment of the disputed question of dative and genitive to which they give rise, and the way in which it has been dealt with by the scholars who have discussed it. Then the other inscriptions of the district are gone through one by one in the light of the two previously chosen for treatment.
