Each individual lemma comprises: (1) a brief indication of the type of inscription; (2) a succinct description of the monument on which the inscription appears, with full details of its dimensions, the size and type of the lettering, interpunction and other epigraphic features, as well as brief notes on any notable decorative features; [...]; (8) a date, absolute where possible (e.g., by means of consular dating), more often approximate, based on letter-forms and epigraphic formulae.
