Ptuj Inscription
The Ptuj inscription, discovered in 1894, is written right to left in a northern Italic alphabet and reads:
| “ | ARTEBUDZBROGDUI | ” |
This is interpreted as two personal names: Artebudz of Brogduos. The name Artebudz may mean "bear penis", while Brogduos may contain the element brog-, mrog- "country". Alternatively, the inscription may be interpreted as Artebudz for Brogdos, with the second name in the dative case.
