A new veteran of the legion VII Claudia from the colonia Flavia Scupi

Abstract

A veteran of the legion VII Claudia pia fidelis, M. Antonius Fronto, known from a recently discovered tombstone, can be added to the large dossier of the already known veterans of this legion settled in Scupi (present-day Skopje in Macedonia). The provenance of the tombstone is the village of Sopište, some 8 km to the south of Skopje, within the boundaries of the territory of the colonia Flavia Scupi. The inscription may most probably be dated to the 1st or the beginning of the 2nd century AD.

Keywords: Moesia Superior, Scupi, Sopište, Roman period, tombstone, veteran, legion VII Claudia
