CIL 14, 00005, http://arachne.uni-koeln.de/item/buchseite/652243
CIL 06, 30703, http://arachne.uni-koeln.de/item/buchseite/601219
Found in Rome, attributed first to Ostia on the basis of the reference to the ordo decurionum (see CIL 14, 00005 (p 612). But Hülsen, in his edition of CIL 06, 10299 argued that line 14 of the inscription had be read as [P. Cornelius Th]allus, based on the rarity of the name and the coincidence of the same (27th) lustrum. His interpretation was rejected by Heinzen (CIL 06, 00148) and Dessau (ILS 3776). Even Hülsen himself later changed his mind (CIL 06, 30703), but his original interpretation was generally followed later by More 1969: 101-102; Royden 1988: 167-168, no. 211; Solin 2002: 135-136; Tran 2006: 197 (but not by Meiggs 1973: 211).
More, Royden and Tran (loc. cit.) assume that the ordo decurionum refers to the decuriones of the collegium fabrum tignuariorum, but Solin (loc. cit.) doesn't think this likely: "Mir scheint der Ausdruck allectus in ordinem decurionum zweifellos auf die Adlectio in den munizipalen Decurionenstand hinzuweisen, nicht unter die Decurionen des Kollegiums." However, it is hard to imagine that an inscription set up in the schola of the fabri tignuarii in Rome would have referred to a municipal ordo decurionum withouth specifying the city in question. So either the inscription originally came from Ostia and Hülsen's reconstruction of Thallus' name in the Fasti is wrong, or the restoration is correct but then ordo decurionum must refer to that of the guild. Either way, the inscription almost certainly stood in the schola of the guild, so reference to the ordo decurionum of the guild might not be so strange.
Panciera (1996: 250-251) again doubted the attribution to Rome because a list of honorati of the collegium fabrum tignuariorum of Rome (AE 1996, 00189), dating to c. 164-173 CE, mentions a P. Cornelius Archite[ctus] among the recent honorati. This lead Panciera to hypothesising that this person was Thallus' father, which would imply that CIL 06, 00148 came from Ostia and that Thallus was magister quinquennalis of the Ostian collegium fabrum tignuariorum some years between 188-196 CE.
However, P. Cornelius Archite[ctus] of AE 1996, 00189 may have been Architectianus' son, named after his great-grandfather.
