Deed of sale from Roman London for a slave named Fortunata; sold to Vegetus, himself a slave of Montanus, another slave: https://walbrookdiscovery.wordpress.com/2012/11/30/wax-on-wax-off/ …pic.twitter.com/1oo6QKiqIc
What an interesting document. Vegetus, slave of a slave of the emperor. The bill of sale seems to provide him with a level of insurance in case other claims of ownership are made regarding the non-wandering Fortunata. London life!
Indeed. One of the most interesting insular documents :)
