abstract = "The contribution proposes to reconstruct the etymology of the place name 'Squaneto' on the basis of the root *akw- in the context of Indo-European water roots involved in the formation of many place names in Northern Italy. An experimental reconstruction *s-akwa-n-eto = *S-qua-n-etum, dating back to the common Indo-European stage, is the result of this etymological process. The toponymic etymology is strengthened by the comparison of 'Squaneto' with the possibly related place names 'Squagiato' and 'Saquana'. The work analyzes also other toponyms from the area between Southern Piedmont and Liguria, inherently in other roots linked to the notion of 'water', like Pre-IE *borm- (> *bormo), Pre-Proto-IE *alb- (*olb-), IE *war- (*uar-), Proto-IE *kar- (*kal-, 'stone carved by water'), and IE *wond- / *und-. The chapter is also an epistemological application of the so-called New Convergence Theory (NCT).",
