Članek je podrobna analiza nagrobnih stel Decima Fulvija Doroteja v Kopru in Pole Orcivije v Mestnem muzeju starožitnosti »J. J. Winckelmann« v Trstu. Analizirani so motivi stel in z epigrafskega ...vidika je obrazložen pomen grškega napisa na reliefih. Izpostavljene so konkretne teorije izvora stel in upodobljencev,ter krajše obnovitve preteklih raziskav. Po Marie-Thérèse Le Dinahet-Couilloud nagrobna stela v Kopru izvira z grškega otoka Reneja, deloške nekropole, kar je razvidno že iz primerjave s številnimi stelami z Reneje, ki imajo enake značilnosti, tako slogovne kot epigrafske. Zato članek zagovarja tudi domnevo o steli Pole Orcivije v Trstu, ki bi tudi lahko izvirala z Reneje, in na podlagi primerjav izpostavlja teorijo njenega izvora kot precej verjetno.
In this article I analyse text on epitaphs in Roman Catacombs (III-VI century) of youngest (children to one years old) and oldest (above eighty years old) Christians. We observe here huge number of ...children in funeral inscriptions in comparison to other age group. In both analysed groups have similar character of inscription. It shows minimal amount of text and not very many religion reference. Perhaps it is result of believing that short or “to long” life are lacking value.
V članku je obravnavan zakon o podelitvi mestnih pravic flavijskemu municipiju Irni (t.i. lex Irnitana) v današnji španski provinci Sevilli. Besedilo poznamo po zaslugi šestih bronastih plošč ...odkritih leta 1981 na lokaciji antičnega mesta, deli drugih dveh mestnih pravic Salpenze in Malake, ki se deloma prekrivajo z ohranjenimi poglavji lex Irnitana, pa kažejo, da vse tri sledijo istemu krovnemu zakonu iz obdobja flavijskih cesarjev. Po zaslugi navedenih kopij poznamo približno tri četrtine celotnega besedila, oz. 73 od 97 poglavij. Besedilo posameznih poglavij zakona govori o magistraturah, volitvah, mestnem svetu, ki je štel v Irni 63 članov, upravnih in finančnih zadevah, sodstvu, izbiri sodnikov v civilnih procesih idr. Sodstvo je veljalo za pravi kriterij mestne avtonomije in kot tako zavzema z poglavji od 84 do 92 več prostora kot katerokoli drugo področje.
Pričujoče kratko besedilo prvič prinaša razlago napisa Vergerijev, ki se je vse do nedavne obnove nahajal v koprski stolnici. Napis, ki ga je zakrivalo obzidano stopnišče na kor, je posvečen Aureliu ...Vergeriju, najstarejšemu bratu koprskega škofa in odpadnika Petra Pavla Vergerija. Zaradi odpadništva je Petra Pavla in njegovega brata Giovannija Battista zadel preklic spomina. Preklic spomina – damnatio memoriae je najbolj izstopajoča značilnost pričujočega napisa.
During the spring season of 2017, the study of the texts and relief decoration in the large Late Period shaft tombs of Iufaa and Menekhibnekau in the western part of the Abusir necropolis continued. ...The final publication of the texts from the tomb of Menekhibnekau is planned to appear in 2018. At the same time, the superstructure of another large shaft tomb, dubbed AW 6 and situated to the north-east of the structure of Udjahorresnet, was completely excavated. Originally, it consisted of an enclosure measuring about 19.5 metres square and surrounding a huge central shaft (about 14 m2 ). On the numerous limestone fragments, no traces of inscriptions or relief decoration have been preserved. A limestone base (originally serving perhaps for a stela) was found in its original position in front of the northern facade of the enclosure; similar bases were unearthed in the centres of the remaining three sides of the original enclosure in 2015. Therefore, the tomb might have been used for the burial of its – as yet anonymous – owner. In the close vicinity of the original enclosure, no traces of a small shaft were found that would give access to the burial chamber situated at the bottom of the huge central shaft. Rather surprisingly, however, another shaft (measuring 5.5 m2 ) came to light close to the southwestern corner of the enclosure. Judging from its position, it might be either another embalmers’ cache or, more probably perhaps, the burial place of a family member (?) of the owner of AW 6.

Članek o celejskih vojakih, ki so izpričani drugod po rimskem imperiju, je dopolnitev prispevka o vojaških na-pisih Celeje (Visočnik 2008). V katalogu so zbrani latinski napisi, v katerih ...so omenjeni posamezniki, ki izvirajo iz Celeje oz. iz njene okolice in so velik del svojega življenja preživeli v eni izmed mnogih rimskih vojaških enot. Domov se niso vrnili, saj so se po končani vojaški službi ali ustalili v bližini krajev, kjer je službovala njihova vojaška enota, ali pa je nenadna smrt predčasno zaključila njihovo vojaško kariero. Origo, ki je na tak ali drugačen način zapisan ob imenu celejskih vojakov, pa nam omogoča, da s pomočjo obstoječih epigrafskih baz (heidelberška, frankfurtska, rim-ska in LUPA) takšne Celejane najdemo in jih analiziramo. Katalogu napisov, ki so jih našli skoraj po vsem rimskem imperiju, namreč sledi še podrobna analiza imen, enot in funkcij, ki se pojavijo na zbranih napisih
The 1960s rescue campaign in Nubia offered a unique opportunity to the Czechoslovak Institute of Egyptology which had only just been established. Its new team took part in an extensive as well as ...intensive campaign, which included epigraphic surveys as well as excavations and anthropol ogical research concerning present-day Nubia. Expedition preparations and logistics were complicated by the partic ular conditions in the then Czechoslovakia. Behind-the-scenes pressures were high; despite politically motivated difficulties and a demanding programme, the series of Nubian expeditions was a success story, result - ing in respect ed specialist publications and a positive general public response on an international as well as national level.
Lawrence Keppie's book offers the non-specialist a comprehensive and enjoyable guide to undestanding the texts of Roman inscriptions, as well as explaining the numerous different contexts in which ...they were produced.Every area of Roman life is covered, including:* the emperor * temples and altars to the gods* imperial administration * gravestones and tomb monuments* local government and society* the army and the frontiers* Christianity* trade, commerce and the economy* the later Roman Empire.For each inscription cited, the book provides the original Latin, an English translation and a commentary on the piece's significance. Illustrated with more than 80 photos and drawings, this is the ideal introduction to the most important source for the history and organisation of the Roman Empire.
