fuit denique hactenus statua in pede montis Romulei, hoc est ante sacram viam, inter templum Faustinae ac Vestam ad arcum Fabianum, quae haberet inscriptum 'Gallieno iuniori' 'Salonino' additum. ex quo eius nomen intellegi potest.
Finally there was up to this point a statue at the foot of the Palatine,that is in front of the Via Sacra, between Vesta and the temple of Faustina, by the arch of Fabius, which they say was dedicated 'To Gallienus the Younger' with 'Saloninus' added. This is how we know his name.
