Apparatus criticus

  • Text from photograph;
  • 1: Mommsen: C·MEVIVS; although Mommsen marks the upper half of a C, the only traces on the stone are significantly dislocated with reference to the rest of the line, and cannot be part of the praenomen, and neither is an interpunct visible. Neither De Spuches in 1864 nor Schubring in his apograph record the C.
