Notes
A highly doubtful inscription, almost certainly false:
1) ministri are normally slaves, not freeborn
2) there is no other instance of a collegium ferrariorum et tignariorum known
Standard text of source
Minervae Paciferae / L. Adssius L. f. Helius / ministri collegi / ferrar(iorum) et tignar(iorum) / quinquen(alis) / lust(ri) III Imp(eroris) Caesa/ri(s) T(iti) Aeli Antonini / Aug(usti) Pii pont(ificis) max(imi) tr(ibuniciae) / pot(estate) IIII cos [---] / [------] / d(onum) d(edit)
Translation
To Minerva Peacebringer. L. Adssius Helius, son of Lucius, minister of the guild of iron workers and carpenters/builders, quinquennalis during the third lustrum, the tribunician powers for the fourth time of Imperator Caesar Titus Aelius Antoninus Augustus Pius, pontifex maximus, consul … has given this (monument) as a gift.
Notes on the source
Accepted as genuine by La Rocca (in Cecamore 2002: 5-8) but like many of the inscriptions preserved only in Ligorius' manuscripts of doubtful authenticity (cf. Cooley 2012: 386-394). In this case for various specific reasons: ministri are normally slave assistents, not (as here) freeborn presidents. The combination of a lustral date with an imperial reign date is non-sensical. The fourth lustrum of the collegium fabrum tignuariorum would fall in the year 9-13 CE (see also comments to CIL 6, *578)
