"Here rests in peace, Sabinus, a man of high consideration, Prsefect of 

 the Market, who lived fifty-fonr years, and twenty-four days. Buried 

 on the sixteenth day before the Calends of August, in the Consulship of 

 Symmachus and Boetius, most distinguished men, Consuls,' i.e. July 

 iVth, 522, A.D. 



In the expansion I have corrected the formula given for the Con- 

 sulship. It was, doubtless, Consulatu SymTnacho et Boetio Viris 

 Clarissimis Consulihus. In De Rossi's, n. 977, we have the strange 

 mixture, Consulatu Symmad et Boeti Viris Consulihus. 



(Jc.) To a keeper of a public granary : — 59.
