L F SACERDOS PVBLICA NOMINE SVO ET M NVMISTRI FRONTONIS FILI CHALCIDICVM CRYPTAM PORTICVS CONCORDIAE AVGVSTAE PIETATI SVA PEQVNIA FECIT EADEMQVE DEDICAVIT

Eumachia, the daughter of Lucius, a public priestess, in her own name and
that of her son, Marcus Numistrius Fronto, built the chalcidicum, the porticus, and the crypta at her own expense, and dedicated them to Concordia Augusta and to Pietas.

Eumachia was patron of the fullers. She had the building erected during the Tiberian period (14-37 AD). The facade (opus latericium) was built between 62 AD and the time of the eruption.
