The Latin inscription was only detected in 1962, after the slab had been taken out of the church wall, where it had been placed with the allegedly Raetic inscription facing outward. Pellegrini, who was the first to mention the finding in 1964, addressed the possibility of a bilingua and expressed his hope for the Latin text shedding light on the Raetic (p. 78). He announced a soon-to-be-published edition of the text by Franco Sartori, professor at the Università di Padova, but although the slab was immediately examined and restored at Padua, no edition has been published. The text is noted and reproduced in the Lingua Venetica with the comment "di dubbia trascrizione" (p. 400); similarly, Mancini refers to "un'iscrizione di età romana di difficile lettura" (p. 278).
The first to attempt a reading was Alessandro Morandi. His interpretation of the text as christian and consequent dating to the 3rd-4th c. AD demonstrates that we are not concerned with a bilingua, but that the stone was reused (as already assumed by Pellegrini 1985: 115 f.).
