Abstract:

We present a new Roman inscription found in the excavations at the Visigothic city of València la Vella (Riba-roja de Túria, València), where it had been reused in the foundations of a building. It is a funerary inscription in the form of an architectural stele, a type of monument that has parallels in the nearby city of Edeta. The surviving fragments, rather damaged, bear two incomplete names, possibly belonging to a married couple. The inscription can be dated to between the late first and early second century CE.
