Abstract: Preserved in the Museo Nazionale Terme Di Diocleziano and Villa Albani are the fragments of a handsome inscription (CIL 6.41062). Pieced together, they reveal part of a funeral oration, a laudatio, spoken by a husband to his deceased wife. Of the titulus where the names of the husband and wife would have appeared, only the word [u]xoris remains. The inscription, popularly known as the Laudatio Turiae, tells the story of a remarkable woman and her family, faced with the trials of civil war and Augustan Rome.
