The inscription "LEG II AVG" is marked both on and below a military standard flanked by a goat and a Pegasus. It records the completion of building work by the 2nd legion Augusta. The Pegasus and Capricorn were the emblems of that legion. The main base of the 2nd legion was at Caerleon, but detachments were seconded to help in the construction of the Hadrianic frontier system. From Hadrian's Wall fort at Benwell, Northumberland, Northeast England, UK. The British Museum, London.
