Abstract


The paper deals with a collection of 49 glandes which belong to a private collector. These slingshots are supposed to have been found around the so-called “Cerro de las Balas” (province Seville), where the battle of Munda took presumably place in 45 BC. Forty-six of them have inscriptions, CNMAG; LXIII; A; DD, which are respectively interpreted as Cn(aeus) Mag(nus), L(egio) XIII, A (?) and, tentatively, d(ecreto) d(ecurionum).
