Diúveí

Diúveí is Jupiter in Oscan — the same Italic sky-father as Umbrian Iuve and Latin Iuppiter, from the inherited word for the bright daytime sky. On the Agnone Tablet he appears twice, never bare: once as Diúveí Verehasiúí and once as Diúveí Regatureí, two cult-titles distinct enough that the tablet's compiler listed them separately. Those two forms are recorded here as their own entries on the pattern this registry already uses for Messapian Zis and his titles, with this record as the base theonym they both belong to.
