_____________________________________________________________

See if this helps at all:

1. CN is the abbreviation for Gnaeus.

2.The tall I is used in place of a double "I", e.g., NIGIDI = NIGIDII (genitive singular)and IULIS = IULIIS (ablative plural)..

3. MAI is the abbreviation for MAIUS. More precisely, in this inscription, it is the abbreviation for MAII (genitive singular).

4. K is the abbreviation for KALENDAE. More precisely, in this inscription, it is the abbreviation for KALENDIS (ablative plural).

5.PRIMUM here is probably the name of one of Nigidius' slaves (in the accusative).

6. SER is the abbreviation for SERVVS. More precisely, in this inscription, it is the the abbreviation for SERVVM (accusative singular).

7. Imagine a full-stop after MAI in line 2, after DOMUS in line 5, and after SER in line 7.
