Commentary

 
Die Inschrift verlief ursprünglich wohl über mehrere Tafeln hinweg und stammt nach Cotton - Eck möglicherweise von einem Ehrenbogen. Lesung und Ergänzungen nach Cotton - Eck. Rekonstruierte Breite der Inschrift: circa 6 m. (B): Lifshitz: Z. 1 u. 2 nicht wiedergegeben; Avi-Yonah, AE 1984, Lifshitz: Z. 5: [---]I [---] sumptu; Lifshitz: Z. 6: [---]FR curante. Datierung: vermutlich vor der Erhebung Getas zum Augustus; falls Plautilla genannt war, zwischen 202 und 205 n. Chr.
