Fragmentary Latin list of guards (vigiles) from the quarry station of Mons Claudianus in the Eastern Desert of Egypt, mid-2nd century AD. Each surviving name is followed by a Roman numeral, probably marking the order of watches or shifts.

In English machine translation

[… lines lost …] Ianua[…] Iafraa[…] 1 Sadalas 2 Aelius 3 Dioscorus 4

The numerals I to IIII likely refer to successive night watches (vigiliae) assigned to each man. The first two names are incomplete.
