The grave and the land beneath it belong to Marcus Aurelius Aegillus, Marcus Aurelius Aelianus Aegillus, and Marcus Aurelius Acindunus Drakontios. His brothers, Aelianus and Acindunus, will be buried in it. But it is not lawful for anyone else to be buried by someone or to bury someone in it. Now if anyone opens or takes it, that one will pay back a fine of 400 denarii to the presidency (proedria) of the purple-dyers (porphyrabapheis) or to those who are supervisors (epimelētai) that year. He left behind a legacy, in order that the recipients might enjoy themselves each year at this tomb of mine using the interest. The yearly interest is 144 denarii.
