Translation

Bassus Crovus, son of Medamus, from Castellum Verium, 25 years old, here he lies, may the earth rest lightly upon you.

Commentary

Secondary location of Castellum Verium (Pl. 138319); unlocated but presumably within the region of the Grovii (assuming Crovii = Grovii, and thus Crovus = Grovus; see also Haley 1986, 282, MAP 24, BA).
