Roman Militay Tombstones as evidence for Soldiers

[Crispvs]

It may be worth bearing in mind that the majority of Roman funerary stelae do not feature images and so are rarely reproduced as images in books. They are entirely absent from the Romanarm.com imagebase, because we are more interested in the details that the images show. However a proper study of funerary sculpture and inscriptions would have to include the wealth of stones which do not feature images or feature images only of military decorations, which is not uncommon, alongside the better known figural types.
