Meaning of cinedus qui leerit by felipe lorenzo del rio





felipe lorenzo del rio

cinedus qui leerit
  40

Ceramic epigraph found in the Roman village of La Olmeda in Palencia, written perhaps in the 4th century in an unrecooked Latin that was moving away from its classical sources, which is noticeable in the suppression of the g of legerit and in the transformation of cinaedus. It meant "faggot who catches it" (steals the ceramic piece) because légere also denoted to take, collect, choose and steal before reading. Epigraphs similar to homosexuality have also been found in public latrines and lupanaries as in Pompeii excavations.
