NOTES
Foto sup 2751, verso del supporto secondario: nota anonima manoscritta: "This is the core of the tomb of Drusus, Tiberius younger brother, / killed by a fall from his horse in his 30 th. year, anno 8. B. C. / Drusus (Nero Claudius) borne in 716 by Livia in the house of her / new husband Octavius, and perhaps his son, was a brave soldier, / an able general and a pronounced panegyrist of the old republican / system [...] / Mommsen thinks that the honorary tumulus to him, mentioned / by Svetonius [...] / To me it seems undoubtedly a tomnb by the nature of its construction".
