| Popis | For almost two hundred years, a unique magical nail with a six line long Latin inscription on its four sides, currently in the care of the British Museum, has attracted the attention of scholars who either focused on its religious aspects or, less often, on the substandard and non-classical linguistic features. Discovered in the first half of the 19th century, the nail immediately became a focus of scientific interest. Yet, the absence of details regarding its archaeological context, coupled with the uncommon nature of the object itself, has hindered a clear interpretation. Consequently, numerous readings and interpretations have been published since then. Despite their abundance, many questions remain unanswered. |
