Une épitaphe bilingue inédite (grec-latin) de Henchir Fortnat (région de Kalaat Senane, Tunisie)

Abstract

A prospecting tour carried out in 2018 in the vicinity of Kalaat Senane, near the “Table of Jugurtha”, made it possible to locate at Henchir Fortnat, an archaeological site long identified as being the center of a private estate owned by senator C. Iunius Faustinus Placidus Postumianus, an unpublished bilingual epitaph written in Greek and Latin, brought to light by a clandestine excavation carried out north of the site.
