The bust of Claudia Olympias is most likely to have come from Rome or its immediate surroundings. Two further inscriptions (CIL VI 15519-20) mention a Claudia Olympias, daughter of Tiberius, and may therefore refer to the same person, who died aged 49 and a half years after 33 years of marriage.
Her coiffure is typical of the late Trajanic and early Hadrianic periods
