 Tomb
81 is a small tomb originally completely detached. This grave too
had a biclinium with a table of which the base still exists. On
the left bench of the biclinium a tomb
a cassone has been built in later time.
Above the entrance is a marble slab of 37 x 36 cms.
On this slab two inscriptions were made next to each other:
DIIS . M DIIS

The left inscription tells us that Claudia Nice
has made the <monument> for herself and for her son, Claudius
Lupercus.
The right one mentions that, with permission of Claudius Lupercus,
Caius Nunnidius Fortunatus has used a part of the grave for himself,
his children, their freedmen with their children.
