Add the dating of the inscription. Certainly not 280. Perhaps 150, as you state for the tomb. His name was originally above as [...]o Cn. f. Scipio, the inscription Cornelius there is new. Because the inscription above was destroyed, the name Cornelius Lucius Scipio was written precisely to the middle first, and new inscription completed later. Therefore there was no need to smooth the space before the name. -- jn 147.251.80.34 (talk) 14:28, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
