John Ma on twitter offered a translation of this newly discovered inscription:
“I am Maternus, new Herakles, who was best in the Muses and unconquered in the gladiatorial schools. I killed Pasinikos, and myself descended to the underworld with him”
-Tweet from Aug 26
I just wanted to file this away for another example of Hercules association with the Muses for juxtaposition with coin above.
