Inscriptions of “Good Luck” on Roman Objects from Viminacium
Апстракт
Recent discovery of a small lead tablet (or a plate, tray?) with an incised inscription utere was
the oppurtunity to review other objects with this inscription or its Greek equivalent found at Viminacium.
So far, the inscription utere/utere felix or its abbreviations have been found on a lead tablet, fingerrings,
mirror frame and belt sets from Viminacium. This inscription made objects used in everyday life
apotropaic, or some of the objects were intentionally made in the shape of the letters of this formula, with
purpose to protect and bring good luck to its owner.
