Abstract
The lamella was found in a bronze bulla folded up tightly (three times vertically; once, horizontally), at the gravefield in Aranyhegy-árok. A coin of Trajan (98–117 A.D.) was found with it, suggesting a date of deposit in the second century A.D., presumably at the time when the city was still a municipium (124 A.D.), but not yet a colonia (194 A.D.). On the site, in general, see C. F. Giuliani, art. “Aquincum,” The Princeton Encyclopedia of Classical Sites (Princeton, 1976), p. 80f. I provide my own readings based on the published photograph.
