		Etymology: Like for Cupra, the name is usually explained from the presence of a temple of the Goddess Cupra, found as ikiperu in a Picene inscription and as Cubrar in an Umbrian inscription.
		Temptatively, the name can be explained as a diminutive with the suffix -ula from a stem paus- that can be derived from the variant beus- of the IE root beu- 'to swell, puff'.
		Etymology: It is clearly built on septem 'seven', possibly a Latin translation of an earlier related form, and an appellative that can be compared with the name of Pedum (Latium) and probably with Latin pes,pedis 'foot'.
