21 Tornos** Vocari NA FABRIC A 14171Z. NA FABRIC C. NA FABRIC C.
The implication is that Tornos was the slave of Vocari. The firm possibly shared a die-cutter with Dannomaros. A potter Tornos certainly worked alone using 1-line dies but they were cut by a different hand. Similarly, a potter Vocara P26 also worked alone and used both 1-line and 2-line dies produced by a third die-cutter..

23 Vritves** Cincos NA FABRIC D. 14166T
The implication is that Vritves is the slave of Cincos. Vritves certainly worked alone using several 1-line dies and probably worked at Rheims. Stamps of a potter Cincos from dies cut by a different hand were excavated at the Mourmelon-le-Petit in the Marne-Vesle potteries

This potter worked on a large scale and was a major supplier to Britain, probably through Camulodunum. He seems to have specialised in large TN platters, Cam forms 2 and 5B. The version Medi may be an abbreviation of the name Medilo or Medico recorded on a Cam 56 cup in TR and found at Sezanne, Marne. Although the letters are smaller the die style with the crossed D is the same. There is also a stamp from Die 01A02 on a mortarium rim found at the Bank of England site and now in the Museum of London. It may be a British product made at Brockley Hill in the pre-Flavian period and therefore the stamp evidence that a Gaulish potter moved to Britain or established a branch firm in the Claudian period.
