Hi folks,
I am working on my Master's thesis about centurions and decurions of the auxilia, more specifically concerning their possible activities in the civil/civic/urban life/world (cities, mostly) in the Western part of the Roman Empire. For this I am making a prosopography of these officers, using as starting point the works of Spaul (Ala2, 1994 and Cohors2, 2000). Spaul refers to an inscription as "Mavors 8 p.62", which appears to mention quite a number of decurions of the Ala Cannanefatium (at least 14, so possibly all of them).
Our university library doesn't have Mavors 8 (M.P. Speidel, Roman Military Studies II, 1992) and [strike]nowhere on the internet I can find the inscription[/strike] with my latest search, just this minute, while typing this, I luckily found the inscription on Ubi Erat Lupa (http://www.ubi-erat-lupa.org/monument.php?id=8228), including other references.
As I have typed my message anyway, I would like to ask if anyone here has Mavors 8 on his/her bookshelf and would be so kind to take a look at page 62 and let me know what Speidel has to say about it - that would be greatly appreciated.
For a scan of the page I am willing to worship you as a demi-god. Send cult-statue; so that I can make a small sacrifice of bacon and eggs if you like. Followed by the erection of an inscription mentioning VSLLM of course.
