English translation (best-effort, with uncertain parts left literal)
“In the consulship of Flavius Vivianus, the most magnificent and most glorious …
… indiction …
Aurelius John.”
Notes on uncertainties
-
The opening is a standard dating formula: ὑπατείᾳ Φλαουίου Βιβιανοῦ
(“in the consulship of Flavius Vivianus”).
-
τοῦ μεγαλοπρεπεστάτου καὶ ἐνδοξοτάτου are honorific superlatives
(“most magnificent and most glorious”), typically modifying the named official.
-
The sequence Τῦ / βι / Τβ / βι / ε / β / ἰ appears to be fragmentary
(possibly broken words, numerals, or abbreviated regnal/consular details) and
cannot be translated confidently from the provided text alone.
-
νδικτ…ί…ονος is very likely ἰνδικτίονος (“of the indiction”),
i.e., an indiction-year dating element.
-
Αὐρήλιος Ἰωάννης = “Aurelius John” (a personal name).
-
Latin vestiges in English means “traces/remains,” but here it may simply
be an editorial/modern note rather than part of the ancient text.
