Abstract
In this article I shall republish a small corpus of epitaphs from the
Roman imperial household, with apparently Christian features.
These texts have not previously been published together. The dating
of these inscriptions will be discussed, and inferences about the Christian
community in the imperial service during the Severan period will be
drawn from the points of comparison which can be made between the
texts.
