[1471] That a part of the tile stamps were not from II Italica, but from III Italica, has been stated several times; but although Groller (Der Römische Limes XI 1910, 57-60 and pl. 32) argued in favor of this assumption, it has to be definitely canceled out. Precisely the tile stamps Groller used for his line of argument can undoubtedly be identified as coming from II Italica, even if their characters look crude and savaged. Otherwise, epigraphic pieces of information from this place were II Italica stayed for centuries are very scarce: despite a small fragment which cannot be identified any closer and which names a primipil(us) of the legion (CIL III 5682 = 11 824), only a few tombstones of active soldiers or veterans have been discovered (CIL III 5671 = 11814. 5673 = 11816. 11822 (= 5681 + 5686 + 5687) and 11823 (5681a + 5685). Legion members appear not only at the headquarters, but also at different places in the province where they held official positions. At Virunum, the center of provincial administration, the following officials served for the governor: a beneficiarius cos. (CIL III 4820 for the year 238 AD); a strator cos. (CIL III 4836 = 11507); a (centurio) frumentarius (CIL III 4861) and a frum(entarius) (CIL III 4830), who, however, seems to have also been born at Virunum. Other officials appear at known junctions, like Atrans (III 11676); Celeia beneficiarii cos. in 192 AD (CIL III 5178), 211 AD (III 5187), 215 (III 5185), 217 (III 5189), unknown year (III 5180); Bedaium in 226 AD (III 5575) and 229 AD (III 5580); Unterthörl in 215 AD (III 11482); St. Leonhard in 209 AD (CIL III 14361), and finally at the Danube border at Passau in 230 AD (CIL III 5690). The tombstones of legionaries who had fallen in combat, where mostly, according to the inscriptions, placed in their home towns: at Virunum III 4835 (bello desider.) 4836a. 4837. 4841. 4856. 4857 (bello desider.). 4862(?). 11553; furthermore 5218 (o(bito) in exp. Da(cisca)). 5412. 5448. 5567. 5614. (11782). 5663 = 11806. 5688. 11700 (bello desider.). The same seems to be case with the veterans’ tombstones in CIL III 4853. 5106. 5449. 5624. A dedication of two legionaries in Severus Alexander’s time, was placed at Virunum (III 4791 add. p. 1046), both were probably in the governor’s staff; an altar for Noreia and the province Brittania near Celeia by a (centurio?) of the legion (CIL III 5300). The legion’s stamped tiles at Celeia (CIL III 11849a. b. c), Breg (III 5757p), Oberbirnbaum (III 5757 f), Heilenstein (III 11849 d) are surely to be placed to the findings at Lotschitz (see above). Whether isolated deposits at a few other places, e.g. Mautern (CIL III 11849e), allows for any clues about military constructions at the individual locations, is hard to say. On tiles of the 4th century see below. The legion’s permanent stationing on Norican soil necessarily led to a changing of the procuratorian province of Noricum to a senatorian one, which was governed by a legate of the emperor in the rank of a praetorian (cp.
