The logo on the carbonized Pompeiian bread
#2
Salve

In many european museums you can see some of that stamps. Usually they are circular, mada of copper alloy, and with the letters inverted.

It's usual to identify that pieces generically as "stamps", probably they have a multi-purpose funcion: mark the bread, brick-stamp, horses(?), leather, tabula ceratae...
