Description: Lepcis Magna, hypogeum. Emergency excavations carried out after a hypogeum of unusual design was found in 1981, 300m west
of Wadi er-Rsaf, between the military barracks and the sea. The materials from the site suggest the hypogeum began to be used
in the first decades of the second century AD and was used for two or three generations, 30-60 years or so. The token was
found in a coffin-shaped limestone urn, which was placed in the second room in the second niche on the right, and which had
painted in red the name Ti(berius) Clau[di]/us Orf[i]/tus. Osteological analysis of the bones in the urn revealed that they
were those of an adult male. The Ti. Claudii in Lepcis had an elevated social rank in the second half of the 1st century AD
and the 2nd century AD
