General notesCIL III,2 (Holzner 2009) reads: Epatia Ante con(iux) Bogi fil(ia). But no name Bogus*, Bogius* is attested. LUPA reads: Epatia Ante(?) Con/bogi fil(ia). OPEL cites the name of this inscription as Conbogi(us), too. This the reading of LUPA and OPEL is more likely -> cognomen Conbog(i)us* with meaning 'breaker' (Stüber 1998: 31). Remarkable is the spelling <-nb-> instead of expected assimilated -mb-.
