TOMB 61
Tomb 61 is a tomb "a cassone" and belongs, like
tomb 60, to the westernmost graves in the necropolis. The front
is turned towards the Via Severiana and had the following inscription:
DIS MANIBVS
ONESIMO
M(arcus) ORBIVS SCAPVLA
EVOC(atus) AVG(usti)
OPTIMO SERVO
FECIT
The grave was built by Marcus Orbius Scapula,
re-enlisted veteran of the emperor,
for Onesimus, his excellent slave.
Today the inscription is not in situ anymore.
