Английская Википедия:Frei-Laubersheim fibula
Шаблон:Contains special characters The Frei-Laubersheim fibula is a silver-gilt bow-style fibula found in Frei-Laubersheim, Bad Kreuznach (Rhineland-Palatinate) in 1872. The grave in which it was found dates to approximately the 6th century, and was that of a presumably Frankish woman. The fibula is one of a pair, and bears a runic inscription in the Elder Futhark.
Inscription
The fibula bears a runic inscription divided into two lines, with some of the individual words separated by punctuating colons. The final characters of both lines are largely illegible due to normal wear caused by securing the now-missing pin under the catch plate.[1] As a result, the inscription has been interpreted in various ways. The first line clearly reads:
The first word, Шаблон:Lang, represents a man's name found in Old High German (Шаблон:Lang, Шаблон:Lang or Шаблон:Lang), Old English (Шаблон:Lang) and Old Norse (Шаблон:Lang).[2] Since boso also appears in compound (dithematic) names such as Bosogast and Bosochind, boso in the inscription may be a shortened form of a longer name.[3] It could also be connected with Bosenheim (Bad Kreuznach), a small town located a few miles to the north of Frei-Laubersheim which is believed to have taken its name from the Boso clan which settled there in the middle of the 5th century.[4] The second word, Шаблон:Lang, is understood as a dialectal variant of West Germanic *Шаблон:Lang, the 3rd person singular past form of the verb *Шаблон:Lang (to engrave, write), a term regularly appearing in runic inscriptions to describe the practice of carving or engraving runes.[5] By the time of attestation, this *Шаблон:Not a typo had undergone monophthongization in most West Germanic dialects: Old Saxon Шаблон:Lang, Old Frisian Шаблон:Lang, Old English Шаблон:Lang, but Old High German Шаблон:Lang. The ae in Шаблон:Lang may represent a transitional stage between the diphthong *Шаблон:Not a typo and the long vowel which was to replace it, which may indicate a Low German origin for the inscription.[6] The third word, Шаблон:Lang, is either the accusative plural or singular collective form of the word 'rune'. Thus, the first part of the inscription reads "Boso wrote (the) runes".
The second line of the inscription is more difficult to interpret. It reads:
The first word, Шаблон:Lang, is generally interpreted as the West Germanic form of the second person singular accusative pronoun *Шаблон:Lang from an earlier Common Germanic *Шаблон:Lang '(to) you'.[7] Alternative interpretations include Шаблон:Lang 'then' and Шаблон:Lang 'I'.[8] The second word, Шаблон:Lang or Шаблон:Lang, is understood to be a woman's name, possibly either an early attestation of the modern name Tedina or a feminine form of the well-attested Old High German masculine name Tallo.[9] The appearance of the rune ᛇ (ï) in the name is significant in that it is one of only three verified attestations of the use of the rune in the south Germanic area, the others being contained in the inscription on the Pforzen buckle and in the so-called Breza fuþark.[10] The last word has proven to be the most difficult to interpret. It is apparently a finite verb inflected in the past third person singular, though the stem remains entirely uncertain, as does the subject of the verb. Suggestions include Шаблон:Lang or Шаблон:Lang 'greeted',[11] Шаблон:Lang 'gave',[12] and Шаблон:Lang 'spoke'.[13] Accordingly, the second line of the inscription has been variously interpreted as reading "Daþina greeted you",[14] "(He) greeted you, Daþïna",[15] "I, Daþina, spoke [the charm]",[16] "Then Dalena spoke [the charm]",[17] or "To you, Dalena, (he) gave [presents]".[18]
Heraldry
The Frei-Laubersheim fibula appears as a charge in Frei-Laubersheim's municipal coat of arms. It occupies the field in base on an escutcheon that is tierced in mantle (divided into three in a somewhat "coatlike" pattern).
