Re: Kluge's Law in Italic? (was: Volcae and Volsci)

Even assuming they're the same, rivers are also named from 'wide', as in potamós = river G.

Many place-names in Italy (not necessarily Latin or even Italic) seemed to be named from words for 'wide' like:

Lavernium, Lavinium, Laurentum

 

***R
Wouldn't Laurentum better be served by linking to a word for "oak"? < something like *dVwr?.
