Three inscriptions from Bath may be relevant. RIB 143 and RIB 144 are altars dedicated to the goddess Sulis by the freedmen of apparently the same centurion, Marcus Aufidius Maximus of Legio VI Victrix, for his welfare and safety. RIB 146 is an altar dedicated to the goddess Sulis Minerva and the divinities of the emperors by Gaius Curiatius Saturninus, centurion of Legio II Augusta.
