The inscription tells us that Tiberius Claudius Julianus, son
of Tiberius, has built this monument for himself and for Claudia
Donata, his dearest mother and for Tiberius Claudius Demetrius,
his dearest brother, who lived twenty-one years, eight months
and fourteen days,
and for Claudia Juliana, his very sweet daughter, and for his freedmen and
freedwomen, and the descendants. The area measures thirteen
feet in width and in depth ... .
With the exception of the damaged north-eastern wall, the vault of
tomb E was found almost intact, and on top several original roof tiles have been found.
Inside the burial chamber is a small square niche between
the slit windows of the entrance wall. The door was flanked
by four semicircular niches. Inside each niche was room for five urns.
