Commentary

Lines 3-4 show that the texts are likely to be the graffiti of soldiers.

For another curator see M.49.vii; this may be a curator turmae, although the vexillation of line 4 (if this is the correct interpretation) suggest a legionary detachment, and there are other military curatores.

Line 4: For another cavalry man at Sheleidima see M.48.
