scxSicel

Sicel was an ancient language spoken by the Sicels (Greek Sikeloi, Latin Siculi), one of the three indigenous (i.e. pre-Greek and pre-Punic) tribes of Sicily; the Elymians and the Sicani were the other two. According to some authors (Varro, Diodorus Siculus) the speakers of Sicel entered Sicily from the Italian mainland, and the language is quite likely of Indo-European origin. In particular the verb form pibe "drink" is a second-person singular present imperative active exactly cognate with Latin bibe and Sanskrit piba; this is firm evidence recommending the language's Indo-European origin.
