Hello,
I am confident that the correct translation of this phrase is "non fui, fui, non sum, non curo" based on by experience with latin and its widespread use. Confirmation would be appreciated anyway.
My questions concern punctuation and the alphabet. I want to know how this phrase would have appeared on Roman tombstones.
Would it be in all capital letters?
Would there be a dot in between words?
Would there be spaces in between words?
Would the letter U or V be used?
Is it written correctly in the picture?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
