Translation	Here lies Quintus Baebius, son of Quintus, of the Sergia tribe, from the city of Conana, a soldier of the 7th legion, who lived for 45 years and served for 20. Although you are weary, traveller, do not make haste - see now my grave! Read as you pause, and learn something you shall. My life I enjoyed, and by my comrades I was beloved. Now I lay rigid; here my bones rest. Conana is the city of my birth, Illyricum received me for burial. Hail, enjoy your life until your fated time comes. Erected by a brother for a brother.
