Supposed Lombardic Inscription edit

I've removed this claim. It was not supported by the source given and is, frankly, absurd. A good takedown of it can be found here. Almost all mentions of this supposed inscription are either unsourced, or come back to this very article. The closest I could find to a genuinely independent source of this claim can be found here. Newcastle University is undoubtedly a reputable source in general, but seeing as co-curate describes itself as "community Website which brings together online collections, museums, universities, schools and community groups to make and re-make stories and images from North East England and Cumbria" I do not believe it can be taken as reliable. As this claim appears to have no reliable source and is clearly seen as nonsense by anyone with any knowledge of the relevant language, I've removed it from the article Tristanjlroberts (talk) 13:13, 2 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
