The objects were built at the end of the 1st century CE. The artefacts are located in the Museum Lapidario Maffeiano in Verona.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The monument on the left shows the Quintus Sertius Festus, who was a centurion in the Roman legion; evidence of this is the visible rod (<em>virga<\/em>) in his hand, which he used to punish. Under the Roman image, there is an inscription: <em>Q SERTORIUS \/ L. F POB FESTUS \/ CENTUR LEG XI CLAUDIAE PIAE \/ FIDELIS<\/em>, that is: &#8220;Quintus Sertorious Festus, Lucius\u2019 son, of the tribe Poblilia, centurion of legio XI Claudia Pia Fidelis&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The monument on the right belongs to Lucius Sertorius Firmus. In his right hand he holds a legionary banner with an eagle (<em>aquila<\/em>), which proves that he served as a ensign (<em>aqulifer<\/em>). The inscription at his monument reads: <em>L (ucius) Sertorius L (uci) f (ilius) \/ Pob (lily) Firmus \/ signif (er) aquil (ifer) leg (ionis) XI \/ Claud (iae) Piae Fidelis \/ missus curat (or) veter (anorum) \/ leg (ionis) eiusdem \/ Domitiae L (uci) f (iliae) \/ Priscae uxori<\/em>, or &#8220;Lucius Sertorius, son of Lucius, of the tribe Poblilia, standard-bearer and aquilifer of legio XI Claudia Pia Fidelis, honorably discharged, curator of the veterans of the same legion, (dedicates this monument) to Domitia Lucius\u2019 daughter and Prisca his wife&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Behind the gravestones is an altar with another inscription: <em>DIS MANIBUS \/ L. SERTORIO \/ L. F. POB \/ SISENNAE \/ PATRI \/ TERENTIAE. L. F \/ MAXIMAE MATRI<\/em>, meaning &#8220;(the altar was dedicated) to the memory of Lucius Sertorius Sisenna, Lucius\u2019 son, of the tribe Poblilia, father, and of Terentia Maxima, Lucius\u2019 daughter, mother&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Certainly, the tombstones and the altar were part of the tomb. In the tomb, were buried, the parents: Lucius Sertorius Sisenna and Terentia Maxima and their children: Lucius Sertorius Firmus, Quintus Sertorius Festus, Domitia and wife of Lucius. Since the younger Lucius was named (<em>praenomen<\/em>) after his father, it can be assumed that he was an older brother.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":71160,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"kategorie_ciekawostek":[61],"class_list":["post-71164","ciekawostki","type-ciekawostki","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","kategorie_ciekawostek-artifact"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/imperiumromanum.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ciekawostki\/71164","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/imperiumromanum.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ciekawostki"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/imperiumromanum.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/ciekawostki"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/imperiumromanum.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ciekawostki\/71164\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/imperiumromanum.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/71160"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/imperiumromanum.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=71164"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"kategorie_ciekawostek","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/imperiumromanum.pl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kategorie_ciekawostek?post=71164"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
