Jovian, 27 June 363 - 17 February 364 A.D.
|Jovian|, |Jovian,| |27| |June| |363| |-| |17| |February| |364| |A.D.|, VOT V MVLT X abbreviates Votis Quinquennalibus Multis Decennalibus. Earlier in the empire, this inscription would have meant that Julian had completed his vows (prayers) to thank the gods on the fifth anniversary of his rule, and made more vows to the gods that they might help him achieve his tenth anniversary. Jovian ruled less than one year. This votive inscription clearly expressed hope for the future rather than an advertisement of current events.
