PCA Inscription

PCA - Sites - Highlights - Tabard Square Inscription

This has been interpreted by one of the leading Latin epigraphic scholars Dr Mark Hassall, of the Institute of Archaeology in London as meaning:

To the spirits of the emperors (and) the god Mars Camulos, Tiberinius Celerianus, ranking moritex of the (traders) of London, set this up.

The inscription appears to have been set up by the trader or negotiator Tiberinius Celerianus who originated from the Rheims district in France. As well as providing a named individual and his status the inscription's importance is magnified by the word Londiniensium. [cont.]
