In this paper the Old Lithuanian local cases of secondary origin (namely the inessive, the adessive, the illative and the allative) are compared with the Etruscan locative constructions derived from the locative or the different cases by means of some postpositions. The similarity of both the derivational features and the grammatical functions allows to give the exact definitions for the Etruscan constructions in question, which may be treated alternatively as the “secondary local cases”: the inessive (in -θi), the illative (in -te, tei, -ti), the destinative (in -ri), the allative (in -pi) and the adessive (in -tra). The suggested names of these cases are taken from the terminology used in Ugro-Fennic linguistics.
