Abstract
The aim of the following article is to discuss two possible interpretations for the Palaic word fulásinanza while shedding new light on the obscure fragment where it occurs, which seems to be the remainder of an invocation to the god Hilanzifa. The word fulásina- denotes a kind of ritual bread but its most startling feature is its suffix -ant-s which could be either a cognate of ergative case markers in other Indo-European Anatolian languages (Hittite, Luvian and Lycian) or a denominal adjective built on -ant-.File in questo prodotto:
