poor", a travertin slab has been found

The inscription says that (this tomb) has been
made by
Pomponia Optata and Marcus Caecilius Euhodus, her father, for their
very pious daughter Pomponia Felix who has lived for three years,
eight months
and three days. The inscription dates back to the time of Hadrian.
