Claim: Falacer, an ancient Italian god, could have been the eponymous ancestor of the tribes Falerii and Falisci.
Evidence: Falacer, or more fully dīvus pater falacer, was an ancient Italic god, according to Varro. The name also has a correlation with Falerii and the Falisci, and so it has been suggested that Falacer may have been the eponymous ancestor of these ancient tribes. The Italic peoples descended from Indo-Europeans who migrated into Italy in the second millennium BC.
