Numonius Vala : ウィキペディア英語版 | Numonius Vala Numonius Vala was a combination of family name ''(nomen)'' and ''cognomen'' used by ancient Roman men of the ''gens Numonia''. ==Gaius Numonius Vala==
Gaius Numonius Vala is known only from coins, from which it appears that he had obtained renown by storming a vallum, and had hence obtained the surname of Vala, which, according to the usual custom, became hereditary in his family. The coins were struck by one of his descendants in commemoration of the exploit. The one pictured here has on the obverse the head of Numonius, with the inscription ''C. NVMONIVS VAALA'', and on the reverse a man storming the vallum of a camp, which is defended by two others, with the inscription ''VAALA''. Vaala is an ancient form of Vala, just as on the coins of Sulla we find ''Feelix'' instead of ''Felix''.〔Eckhel, vol. v. p. 263. (cited in Smith)〕
