Commentary:

This text was one of a group cut on the family tomb whose elements were incorporated into the walls at the south east gate of the city: 12.410 (= MAMA 462), 13.301 (=MAMA 472+473),13.302 (=474, 475, 476) and 12.409 (Walls 151) The group is published and discussed by Reynolds, 'The first known Aphrodisian to hold a procuratorship', Steine und Wege (Vienna, 1999), 327-334.
