Honorific pedestal remembering the public tribute, promoted by a group of citizens of

Felicitas Iulia Olisipo, to Lucius Caecilius Celer Rectus, son of Lucius, Roman citizen of the

senatorial order (socio-political group including citizens with access to the most important judiciaries of the empire), who at the time of the ceremony had already been

quaestor of the province of

Baetica (governor of the Roman province located roughly in present-day Andalusia), tribune of the people (one of the representatives of the Roman people) and

praetor (highest ranking judge of the empire), the latter two offices practised in Rome. The gens Caecilia was numerous in the municipality of

Felicitas Iulia Olisipo, which suggests this Lucius Caecilius Celer Rectus was born in the city who paid him tribute.
