This came from one of my colleagues in the Classic Department here at the
University of Oregon.
>As for the inscription, it is actually two sentences, and it
>>contains a spelling mistake as transcribed. It should read:
>>
>>sitieNtes venite ad fontem. vobis obviam veniet laeta multitudo
>>
>>I.e. the v in sitievtes should be an n. "You who thirst come to the
>>fountain. A happy abundance will come to meet you." Sounds like a nice
>>fountain.
Hope this helps!
