New Greek and Latin Inscriptions from Viminacium

Abstract

The paper presents Greek and Latin inscriptions from Viminacium which have been discovered during archaeological excavations on various sites in the city. The evidence includes dedications to the god Aptus (attested on an inscription from Dalmatia), Jupiter, Nymphs and the Thracian Rider. One fragment mentions six tutors of children or a spouse of a person whose name is not preserved. The deceased was probably a soldier/officer of the Roman army who served in the legion VII Claudia stationed at Viminacium. Epigraphic material published in this article also includes some fragmentary inscriptions, most notably a piece of a military diploma issued by Hadrian.
