Roman Gravestone 47

A tombstone in the form of an inscribed panel, which reads: 'Gaius Lovesius Cadarus, of the Papirian voting tribe, from Emerita, a soldier of the twentieth legion Valeria Victrix, 25 years old, of 8 years military service. Frontinius Aquino his heir had this stone made.' He came from Merida, in South-West Spain, never to return.
