I have seen these many times in the past, and I had wondered what the inscriptions might mean. I took this set of pictures knowing I'd show them here on my blog once I found out what was wrote on them..
To Fortune, who had brought him back to Eternal Roma
So I thought well this one will soon be solved... and I googled it as well....
ARVB
BINGSTO
NEFORAS
SES
Nothing at all, did not find anything..... but as I was typing it in I noticed something and realised what it said.... have ago, see if you can come up with it.
I will tell you what it says tomorrow if no body comes up with it...
ENJOY

Ha Ha - I know.
Did you do that yourself Tom?
Hi Kaz
I have seen these loads of times and never noticed it before... I have since tried to find out about the posts, or inscription but drew a blank..... I laughed at this when I realised what it says. I googled that and it came up with an inscriptions from a 'Riddle Stone' from down south somewhere...
I am not sure what it says. I tried several and found nothing. I never even found your Riddle Stone.
I'll be back, Tom. I hope the back of my brain works on this today and can come up with a little something.
"A rubbing stone for asses"
RuneE got it. I saw the word stone but forgot the "V" is actually a "U" so I missed it.
Kaz was the first, and then Rune.... Those Victorians must have had a good laugh at this.
Tom: Aren't you the smart ass figuring it out.
I'm glad Rune got it so I could laugh!
I love it! It's always good to start the day with a good laugh. :)
That's a nice reflection too.
Great find, congrats to Rune, I could not find it also.
Thanks everyone for stopping by and joining in.
Love this one, Tom! And I always thought those Victorians were so straight laced!
I looked at it until I got it only to find everyone else had too. :)
I got here to late.
It would have been hard but you said you noticed it typing so I put it in a line.
Thanks for the fun post Tom!
I forgot to say what a neat reflection!
I am really pleased with with everyone joining in with this... I found it a great laugh when I noticed it and hoped you all would enjoy the posting.
I'd never have guessed that - trust Kaz to know - and Rune!
We took a photo this morning in Cheethams Park of the stones thinking the phrases were Latin. After using a Translator app and having no luck we of course went on Google and here we are. Putting all the letters in a line and realising what the last five words were we appreciated the humour but still don’t know what the DOM means. Can anyone enlighten us please??
