Abstract

The Sylloge Turonensis, preserved in the manuscripts Klosterneuburg 723 and Göttweig 64 (78), receives its name from a fragment written in Tours, which appears interpolated between the series of suburbans inscriptions of Rome and a succinct appendix of varied inscriptions. In the 1888 publication, the fragment is presented as if it were two inscriptions joined in a single text (I. B. De Rossi (1888). Inscriptiones Christianae urbis Romae septimo saeculo antiquores II, 1. Romae, 69-70). However, the manuscripts themselves allow us to identify three well-defined segments: the epitaph of Ebracharius followed by a place and date formula and a votive prayer, which do not seem to proceed from epigraphic texts.
