Translation

Sacred to the Spirits of the Dead, Caius Rubrius Flaccus of Tucci, 33 years old, here he lies, may the earth rest lightly upon you, his mother Rubria Nais made this for the most dutiful son.

Commentary

There are two places known as Tucci in Baetica (Pl. 256232; Pl. 266070). The larger and better-documented city, Tucci/Col. Augusta Gemella (Pl. 266070), has been selected as the most likely point of origin.
