Monumento sepulcral de San Jorge (ss. I-II d.C.)

Basamento moldurado y trasera de un gran _monumentum sepulchrale_ probablemente rematado con pulvinos y con inscripción dedicatoria hoy perdida. De época alto-imperial romana, es el ejemplar mejor conservado de una tipología bien atestiguada en las Cinco Villas. Excavado en la década de 1980, puede verse _in situ_ al Este del término de Biota, cerca de Farasdués. Seguramente serviría como sepulcro de incineración a un enclave rural contiguo tipo _uilla_ o _uicus_. Base with moulding and back panel of a large funerary monument. It was probably topped with _puluini_ and it is likely to have read a dedication, today lost, in the inner side. Datable to the early imperial period, it is the best known example of this kind of funerary monument, well attested in the region of the Cinco Villas. It was found in the 1980s and can be seen, _in situ_, at the eastern edge of the town of Biota, near Farasdués. It might have contained cremated ashes from a nearby _uilla_ or _uicus_.
