what later between 201—203/204. Then he was cur. rerum publicar. Urbis(alviensium) item Tusculanor. around 204/205. His consulship followed. This could be dated to 205 or rather to 206. If he had imme­diately followed Q. Anicius Fausitus (202—205), (cf. A. STEIN: Die Legaten von Moesien, DissPann 1/11, 1940, 53—54) then his office there should have been dated between 205 and 208. The administration of Moesia Superior was received among normal circumstances only after a few years of consulship by the selected senators among the circumstances characteristic of the first decade of the third century and the practice had to be the same in case of L. Marius Perpetuus too. Thus it is possible that he did not immediately follow Q Anicius Faustus in Moesia Superior but in accordance whith What I have already stated about his career, he is in my view second after Faustus. In this instance he probably assumed office in Moesia Superior around 208 and stayed there approximately until 210—211. According to his cursus honorum (CIL II 1178 = ILS 1165) this appointment was followed by the three Dacián administrations which likely began around 211 and was terminated — ac­cording to the above data — in the middle of 214. In this instance L. Marius Perpetuus was Dacia's legate around the time of the barbarian raid of 212 and the achieved victory was associated to his name. The inscription in Apulum preserving his cursus honorum was placed by the centurio of the legio III Italica Antoniniana, M. Ulpius Caius: [pr]aes(idi) [i]ustiss(imo). The appearance of the centurio of the Raetian legio in Apulum and his inscription in honor of the governor allows us to conclude that he probably participated with the vexililatio< legionis in the struggles by the Danube area or escorting Caracalla on his trip to the east when he was in Dacia. Thus the unknown legate Whose name was scraped off the inscription of Porolissum did not participate as the predecessor of L. Marius Perpetuus in the restoration of the burned temple of Bel (on the in­scription we find Caracalla Pius Felix thus the stone relic is not datable to a time sooner than the middle of 213). The burning of the temple, even if we take into consideration the career of Ulpius Victor (CIL III 1464 = ILS 1370) does not unambiguously associate to the barbarian raid of 212 and its restoration (which could take place even years later) has to be dated under all circumstances somewhat later. Ulpius Victor, as H. G. Pflaum evidently pointed out cor­rectly (H. G. PFLAUM: Les carrières procuratorien­nes équestres sous le Haut-Empire romain, Paris 1960, Soproni Sándor: Castellum Carporum. FA 15 (1963) 43—54 Az 1913. évi intercisai ásatások alkalmával előkerült sírkőtöredék, amely fontos új adatokkal egészítette ki ismereteinket Philippusnak a carpok ellen viselt há­borújáról, egy III. századi pályafutást is megőrzött. Sajnos, a hosszában kettévágott feliratnak csak bal fele maradt meg, a hiányzó szöveg kiegészítése nem adható meg egyértelműen. A cursus honorumot magá­Ъа foglaló öt sor a következő: P • AEL • PROCVLINO PRIMO IN СОН СО LATO IN LEG­H-AD CIT EQ • LEG • S • СОН • VII • PRAET • P • V no. 257) could be the praepositus of legio VII gemina in 212 during Caracalla's pursuit — after murdering his younger brother — of his brother's followers. As recognition for his special appointment to Hispánia he received the procuratura of the subpraefectus annonae urbis as centenarius during 213/214 (H.—G. PFLAUM: op. cit. 1030). Thus at the earliest he got to Porolissum as a procurator in 214 or perhaps in 215. The legate whose name was later erased from the building in­scription of Porolissum is difficult to identify because of the historical circumstances. We can take into consideration Március Clau(dius) Agrippa (A. STEIN, op. cit. 65—67 or rather his unknown successor taking office already under Macrinus besides C. Iulius Sep­timius Castinus (A. STEIN: op. cit. 65—67). If the restoration of the temple did not take place years after its burning, it is possible that it was destroyed by the Dacián attack mentioned by Dio Cassius in the times of Macrinus (Dio LXXVIII, 27). Thus the historical sources of 213 and 214 all make it unlikely that Caracalla visited Dacia during 213.1 The mentioned section of the História Augusta which serves as a basis for this assumption is self-contra­dictory and it seems unlikely that the dein ad orien­tera profectionem parans omisso itinere in Dacia resedit period erroneously got among the description! of the events of Gaul and Raetia because of the desultoriness of the author. Imperial profectio cannot be traced in the coins minted in 212 while in the first minting of 213 it is possible to do so. This is un­doubtable proof that Caracalla set out in the first half of 213 and not sooner. Because of the prepara­tions for the war with the Alamanni in 213 it is impossible to consider that Caracalla visited both Gaul and Dacia after the winter. Otherwise the in­scriptions from Prolissum can also be traced probably not to the first but to the second half of 213. There­fore they do not prove the assumed visit of the emperor. In 214 Caracalla spent approximately three-quarters of a year in the provinces after starting out from Rome and before reaching Nieomedia. The longer Dacián stay mentioned in the sources could offer only in this period. This dating has neither historical nor epigraphicar data against it, It is supported by the change of office of L. Marius Perpetuus and C. Iulius Septimus Castinus in the governorship of Dacia which could not have occurred earlier than 214. This likely took place precisely at the visit of Caracalla just as the reorganization of the two Pannonias. J. Fitz A töredék a halottnak csak egy tisztségét említi: lcxer]cit(ator) eq(uitum) leg(ionis s(upra) [s(criptae)], viszont hárorn alakulatot is felsorol, amelyekben egy­más után szolgálatot teljesített: coh(ors) (milliaria) [Hemesenorum], leg(io) II ad(iutrix), amelyben két tisztséget is betöltött és coh(ors) VII prae(toria) p(ia) v(index). A szerző ezekből az adatokból a következő pályafutást állította össze: miles cohortis (milliariae) Hemesenorum miles legionis II adiutricis p. f. exercitator equitum legionis II adiutricis p. f. (a primi ordines között) exercitator equitum cohortis VII praetoriae (talán mint evocatus) Ez az összeállítás ellen több kifogás hozható fel. Valószínűtlen nagynak látszik az ugrás az egyszerű P.
