ΣΟΥΛΓΑ ΑΟΥΔΟ ΜΝΟΥ ΕΤΙΕ

Σοῦλ Γαιανου Δόμνοῦ ἔτους ιε

Soul, son of Gaianus Domnus. Fifteen years old.

Σοῦλ Γαιανου Δόμνοῦ ἔτους ιε

Erosion prevents a definitive reading of the names on the epitaph; those suggested in this interpretation are attested elsewhere and are thus possible here. A line at the top of the stone, which appears to be a border, negates the possibility of a standard θάρσει ("be of good courage") preceding the first line here. Dimensions refer to entire remainder of stone.
