Funerary altar known as 'the Altar of the Scribes'. Quintus Fulvius Eunus dedicated this funerary altar to his sons Faustus and Priscus. Both were clerks of the senatorial magistrates, tasked with Rome's urban administration, including the capital's food supply. The high quality of this marble altar with its fine carving reflects the comparative wealth and elevated staus of its dedicatees. The scene at the top shows clerks and officials at work. The lower panel shows a crowd of petitioner pleading their cases to the magistrates and officials shown in the upper panel of this altar.
