Notes
Fragment of a marble plaque. The top is probably intact, but the other sides are broken away. Parts of three lines of an epitaph survive in poorly cut, irregular letters. The third line is cut less deeply than the first two. To the right of lines 2 and 3 is a cross, between both lines. The cross on the right side of lines 2 and 3 indicates that the right side of the text survives. The transcription assumes that a narrow piece of the left side of the stone is lost, and thus a cross is restored. But much more may be lost.
