What it meant

vespae — Lewis & Short

vespaeet vespillones dicuntur, qui funerandis corporibus officium gerunt, non a minutis illis volucribus, sed quia vespertino tempore eos efferunt, qui funebri pompā duci propter inopiam nequeunt. Hi etiam vespullae vocantur. Martialis:

I qui fuerat medicus, nunc est vespillo Diaulus, Fest. p. 369 Müll.
