Venerus

1. (Old Latin, rare) genitive singular of Venus
   • CIL 10.05191:

     Agria Sucia N(umeri) f(ilia) / sacerdos / Ce/rer(us) et Venerus

     (please add an English translation of this quotation)

This form shows the rare genitive singular ending -us instead of the standard Classical Latin ending -is. This unique ending is poorly attested and largely exclusive to religious or legal documents.
