"Lusas saudacoes tambem"

If Lusitaniann has PORCOM (*PORK'O-) and TAURO (*TAURO-), so it may be a
"kentum" language. There's more about Lusitanian words?
Had Lusitanian L-clusters? I'm asking it because the phonetical change from
Latin to Portuguese eliminated L-clusters:
Latin CL-, PL-, FL- > Portuguese CH- {Archaic /c^/ > Modern /s^/}
Latin GL-, BL- > Portuguese L-
Latin -CL- > Portuguese -LH- {L palatal}
etc...
