Excavated 1806, 1886, 1933-5 and 1977. (Eschebach West 5, Kockel Süd 5).

 

On the 1st May 1886 a marble plaque was found with the inscription

 

N.  CVRTIVS N.  F.

N(umerius) Curtius N(umeri) f(ilius) Spurianus frater.

According to Kockel the find circumstances are not exact enough and the naming cannot be conclusively proven.
