The plate, originally part of a larger set of silver tableware, was clearly used over a prolonged period, since repeated polishing in antiquity has worn away the details of the rim decoration. On the underside are Latin inscriptions giving the names of two different owners. It was common for Romans to mark their valuable possessions in this way as a precaution against theft. The use of masks, symbols, and animals as decoration seen here was popular throughout the Imperial period.
