Details

Imp(eratori) Nervae Traiano Caesari Augusto Germanico Dacico sacrum

Templum in rupe Tagi superis et Caesare plenum
ars ubi materia vincitur ips{s}a sua
avis quali dederit voto fortasse requiret
cura viatorum quos nova fama iuvat
ingentem vasta pontem qui mole peregit
sacra litaturo fecit honore Lacer
qui pontem fecit Lacer et nova templa dicavit
scilicet et superis munera sola litan(t)
pontem perpetui mansurum in saecula mundi
fecit divina nobilis arte Lacer
idem Romuleis templum cum Caesare divis
constituit felix utraque causa sacri

C(aius) Iulius Lacer d(e) d(ecurionum) s(ententia) f(ecit) et dedicavit amico Curio Lacone Igeditano
