Translation:

Of [·· ? ··] censor [·· ? ··] consul, patron (all nominative) [·· ? ··] saw to the making [·· ? ··]

Commentary:

l. 1. censor. Perhaps Claudius, but more probably one of the Flavian emperors if, as the description suggests, the findspot is the Byzantine Gate, in which blocks from Flavian monuments are known to have been re-used, see 342, 350.

Photographs:
none.
