Abstract

The article concerns a new epigraphic poem from Forum Sempronii; it
consists of eleven lines (nine hexameters ending with an elegiac couplet), unfortunately
largely damaged and not readable in the first part. Vv. 4-8 allude to the different fates
of two brothers, the last verse repeats the wish that the earth will be light. The writing
model and style refer to the 3rd century A.D.
