Remarks
- ↑ The name is incomplete in the inscription, so that there are different suggestions for the name. The reading at EDCS is T (itus) [] rbius Pri [] nus . RIB adds the name to Titus Orbius Priscinus but maintains instead Orbius also Urbius and instead Priscinus also Primianus possible. John Spaul gives the name with Titus Orbius Primianus .
