The tomb seems to have been built around 130 AD.
During a later reorganisation of the tomb the large niche of the back wall was broken out to make place for
a pillar.
On this pillar the following inscription can be read:

Caius Arrius Iherax has erected this for Arria Moschis, his good and well-deserving patroness.
