1.1.4Meaning
The segmented word ωρας appears immediately after καᴎη ‘sheep’. It could be interpreted as a genitive singular in -ς. The comparison with Luw. ura/i- suggested by Brixhe & Özsait 2013a:248 and followed by Adiego 2017a is not likely, if one compares the diverging vocalism of the more promising cognate *oυρζε-. Considering that the numeral 3 follows the Pisidian word ωρας, one could think instead of Lyd. ora- ‘month’. More evidence is needed to confirm any of these hypotheses.
