| Transcription different from ICVR. according to Schmidt 2023, 509. All the previous editions (CIL, CLE, ILCV, ICVR) follow de Rossi idea that both the fragments were pertaining to the metrical elogium of the orator Flavius Merobaudes (honoured in 435 by a bronze statue in the Ulpium forum with a honorary inscription: CIL, VI 1724). about him, cf. PLRE II, 756-758, also in oder to justify the proposed possible datation of the elogium). According to Schmidt 2023, only the fragment (b) is related to Flavius Merobaudes; the fragment (a) is pertaining to another text (Felle) . |
