Abstract

In 1993 Hassall and Tomlin published a Latin curse tablet that was found at the Romano-British site of Red Hill in 1990. More recently it has been discussed in Mullen 2013 and Adams 2016. Below are the text and translation printed by Adams, but with a few minor alterations: firstly, we have added the missing in (line 3) samguin, which is what appears on the actual tablet, as noted by Hassall and Tomlin 1993 and as shown in Tomlin’s drawing; secondly, we have replaced the angle brackets around (line 6) with curved brackets { }, in accordance with the Leiden conventions.
