Descriptionlarge slab, but cut as opus sectile, flat bottom, with perpendicular sides (as opposed to AE 1262, to which this slab is related); top has central semicircle sticking out, the top of which is broken off. However, a slight graffito is visible continuing the top line of the slab, possibly to indicate the semicircle was still meant to be sawn off, but was then discarded as building rubbish.
