The ‘Service des Monuments historiques de l'Algérie,’ in carrying out, during 1913, some excavations in the middle of the ruins of the Roman town of Lambaesis (not in the fortress of the Legio III Augusta) discovered, not very far from the Capitol and the probable site of the Forum, an inscribed fragment, which I wish here to discuss fig. 14). It had been used up in building a wall of a late epoch, and, in consequence, was not in its original position; but it is not likely to have strayed very far. The text inscribed on it had obviously been arranged in several columns, probably in two. There remain now, in any case, parts of two columns; the right part of the left-hand column, and the left part of the right-hand column. The letters are 2·5 cm. high, and resemble in style the writing au calame which, especially in Africa, denotes the age of Hadrian and of Pius.
