Hermes of Commagene tablets, bell tower, St Michael's, Brough

These tablets (copies of the original in the FitzWilliam Museum, Cambridge) are dedicated to 16-year-old Hermes of Commagene. Commagene was a small client kingdom of the Romans based in parts of eastern Turkey and Syria. Hermes may have been here in connection with the medical profession attached to the Roman army garrison of Verteris.
