Milestone, AD 120-21l. Roman Britain. From Rhiwiau-uchaf Farm, Llanfairfechan, Gwynedd, Wales. This milestone was found on a farm nearly seven miles from the Roman fort at Caerhun (Kanovium). The inscription reads: 'Imp(erator) Caes(ar) Trai/anus Hadrianus / Aug(ustus) p(ontifex) m(aximus) tr(ibuniciae) p(otestatis) V / p(ater) p(atriae) co(n)s(ul) III / a Kanouio / m(ilia) p(assuum) VIII' ('The Emperor Caesar Trajan Hadrian Augustus, pontifex maximus in his fifth year of tribunician power, father of his country, thrice consul: from Kanovium 8 miles'). The lettering was probably picked out in red paint, as was usual at the time. H: 167 cm. reg. no: PY 1883,0725.1.
