... ISSIMO probably the second part of the word [pient]\ssm\o or of another attribute expressing piety (parenti pientissimo). Our tomb-stone belongs doubtless to the beginning of the II

nd century or to a later period, as the legate of Pannónia inferior (Eastern Pannónia, the capital of which was Aquincum) was only from the beginning of the III

rd century on consularis, of course, only in case if the original place of discovery was A quincum or at least Eastern Pannónia. The legate of the second Pannónia (western Pannónia, Pannónia Superior) could only be such a person, who was a consul of the Roman Empire. Aquincum, end of September, 1944.
