Tomb 71
Tomb 71 can better be defined as a rectangular object with a base of 65 x 65 centimetres. This aedicula-type grave has a tympanum with an inscription written on a marble slab of 27 x 28 centimetres:
D(is) M(anibus)
L(ucius) SVALLIVS EVPOR
APHRODISIAE
CONLIBERTAE
KARISSIMAE BE
NE MERENTI FECIT
Lucius Suallius Eupor has made (this grave) for Aphrodisia, who has been made free together with him, who was very dear to him and deserves it. Tomb 71 has to be dated to the time of Trajan or Hadrian.
