Description
Tombstone written in Iberian language, but where it is observed that the composition of the inscription and the funeral formula display a Roman influence: NEITINKE / SUBAKE·E·I·TAK, which could be translated as: Neitinke son of Subake is buried here. This inscription was found in 1994 during archaeological monitoring of the new sewer in Notary Faus suburb. This object was probably out of its funeral context and had been reused as building stone.
