Epitaph of Quintus Cumelius Celer
Edition
Apparatus
L.2. CIL reads either Q. F(ilius) Fab(ia) Celer Bri[x(ia)] OR Q. f. A[ren(iensi] Celer Bri[x(ello)]. An image of the stone shows a very small letter between the R and the C, but it is not clear if this is an A (as on HEpOnl) or an I (as on CIL). L9. reads MASCELIO LIB but image of stone shows MASCELLIO LIB
