Two Roman stones. The first stone features a Latin inscription surrounded by an intricately carved border. The space around the center panel is decorated with two pelta-shaped ornaments, a pegasus on the bottom, a sea-goat on top, and flowers. The second stone is primarily covered with a Latin inscription surrounded by a twisted-cord pattern on the border. A boar is carved below the inscription.
