162 Oy SOMAN REMAINS AT SOUTH SHIELDS. 



2. h. On one side ASA. On other side V R N 



Can ASA signify ''Ala Sabiniana," the Sabinian Regiment 

 of Cavalry; and VR N " Uriconium," or Wroxetcr; and, if so, 

 what was the connection between the two ? 



3. h. On one side C V"G. On other side TT" M 



The first legend is the one we are so familiar with on the Tiles 

 found at the La we. Of the second legend the first two letters 

 are indistinct, the last letter very plain. If the rendering given 

 above be correct, the conclusion is irresistible that the combina- 

 tion stands for " Tunnocelum." 



A. c. AVGG 



Above three heads, two of them very fine, the third imperfect. 

 The Central one appears certainly, from the likeness to the head 

 on his coins, to be Severus. If it be so, the others are doubtless 

 Caracalla and Geta. Tlie date, when this bulla was stamped, 

 was therefore, in all probability, A.D. 209, or thereabout. 



5. b. 



A bulla, which, Mr. R. Blair informs me, was similai* in all 

 respects to the preceding, but which has unfortunately been lost. 



G. h. On one side D A V 



A fragment of a bulla stamped with a head, or heads, on both 

 sides. The only letters remaining arc D, and, at a distance 

 equivalent to the space required for probably tliree letters, A V 

 ligulate. 



The Writi-r of tlie above Taper and Lists must here, for the 

 present, cease his labours. He had intended to give a " Cata- 

 logue Raisonnee" of the Miscellaneous Objects discovered, but 

 tlie "Finds" have of late so increased, in number and interest, 

 that the Miscellaneous Objects, if ever catalogued as intended, 

 must form the subject of another communication to tlie Club.
