page 206 note 7 Dr. G. Webster sent details, squeezes and a photograph. The name Firminus is well attested, but its connection with this villa is unknown. In Arch. Review 11 (1967), 14Google Scholar it has been suggested that it was ‘possibly the name of the building contractor’.

page 207 note 8 Although the linguistic evidence places this inscription in the latter half of the fifth century it has seemed advisable to include it among this year's discoveries from Roman Britain because there is such a paucity of evidence from Roman sites for this transitional period. For a full discussion only summarised here see ProfessorJackson, K. and Wright, R. P., Ant. J. XLVIII (1968)Google Scholar, forthcoming.

page 207 note 9 Grid ref. SJ 568091, about 575 yds. NE. of the NE. angle of the Forum at Wroxeter (Arch. LXXXVIII, pl. LXVIII). The farmer, Mr. C. V. Everall, notified Dr. A. W. J. Houghton, F.S.A., who took it into safekeeping and provided details, photographs and a squeeze and made it available to the present writer for inspection.

page 207 note 10 Dr. G. Webster in correspondence emphasized how the latest levels have been extensively disturbed and could cite no artifacts datable to the fifth century. Mr. P. A. Barker is about to record in Medieval Archaeology XII a timber-and-wattle building excavated in 1966 in the Insula of the Baths. Whereas the pottery and coins belong to the fourth century, he considers that the plan seems to show Germanic rather than Celtic antecedents, with remarkable resemblance to later longhouses. It is to be hoped that further excavation and chance discoveries may help fill this lacuna in our knowledge of the fifth century.

page 207 note 12 Found among rubble drawn from the churchyard at Staunton-on-Arrow, 8 miles W. of Leominster (grid ref. SO 368602). Major T. Douglas Ross sold it at Sotheby and Co's sale on 29th January, 1968, as lot 62 to Mr. Donald Nicholas. Mr. K. S. Painter provided details and photographs; for his full discussion see Woolhope Naturalists Field Club (1968), forthcoming. Mr. S. E. Ellis, of the British Museum (Natural History), identified the stone as probably one of the Cotswold freestones, almost certainly from eastern Gloucestershire or southern Worcestershire.

page 207 note 13 Mr. F. H. Thompson conducted the excavation for the Ministry of Public Building and Works, provided details of items 8–12 and made this item and no. 72 available. Mr. D. F. Petch provided details and squeezes of nos. 9–12. In no. 8 the letters are in l. 1 ¾ in., in l. in., and l. 3 2½ in. high.

page 208 note 16 Now deposited in the Grosvenor Museum.

page 208 note 17 For the Royal Commission on Historical Monuments Mr. H. G. Ramm sent details, squeezes and a photograph. Drawn by the present writer. The left margin is broken and the upper margin is broken somewhat aslant. The right margin seems to be intact as if the rest of the text came on a second stone. The lower margin forms the original base.

For secus governing the accusative see RIB 695 (York) and 369 (Caerleon). Heres sec(undus) seldom occurs in this order and seems much less likely. For Gaudentius see CIL VIII, 9091, 20873; XII, 1273; XIII, 1880, 11880. Gaudens is much less frequent.

page 208 note 18 For the Ministry of Public Building and Works Mr. A. L. Pacitto excavated this area before the construction of the A 66 motorway, and Miss D. Charlesworth sent details. The present writer has drawn this group of items (nos. 15–18, 20, 23–27) at Brougham Castle. Each one is on red sandstone.

The slab had been broken up to form a cist. D ET M seem to be D(is) et m(emoriae); see CIL XIII, 11142. If M(anibus) was omitted through juxtaposition with m(emoriae) it may have been D(is Manibus) et m(emoriae); for an omission of M(anibus) see CIL XIII, 3244. Nittiunis seems to be unmatched; CIL XII, 162 has Nitiogenna. If the coniux, Talio, is masculine the name of the partner will be feminine. For Talio on a patera see EE VII, 1168.

If the weight, which is only slightly corroded, is a fraction of the Roman ‘libra’ of 5050 gr(ains) it is 13.5 Per cent short of the norm (210.5 gr.). But on the basis of the Celtic ‘libra’ of 4770 gr. it is only 8.4 per cent short of the norm (198.75 gr.).
