Revisiting Prefects in Bronze: New and Rediscovered Tesserae

Abstract

Abstract:

This short article updates "Urban Prefects in Bronze," published by this author in 2017 in the Journal of Late Antiquity. To the corpus of bronze tesserae of urban and praetorian prefects from late and post-imperial Italy, it adds four tesserae previously unknown and notes the re-surfacing of two more thought lost or phantoms. These new tesserae introduce one new prefect to the fifth-century fasti.
