The language of ritual, wind, and fire — preserved in the Iguvine Tablets, whispered on the slopes of the Apennines.
esu bue perakre estrus
sakre tote — kuper fisiu
sakre tote — kuper fisiu
“I am the sacred breath of fire,
blessing the people — flowing through ash and sky.”
blessing the people — flowing through ash and sky.”
This poetic reconstruction is inspired by the structure of Umbrian litanies. Although much is lost or debated, the spirit of the tablets lives on in invocation, flame, and form.
