For a dead ancient language, Latin had a pretty neat conjugation.
I thought a bit and I wonder if I can make it even neater. So... here it is, an agglutinative Latin:

[Indicative]

Aspect:
- Non Perfect: -b-
- Perfect: -r-

Tense:
-Present: -u-
-Past: -a-
-Future: -i-

//I failed to find a general pattern for number here. So number and person is still fused.

Person
-1sg: -m-
-2sg: -s-
-3sg: -t-
-1pl: -mus-
-2pl: -tis-
-3pl: -nt-

Voice:
-Active: -0
-Passive: -ur

Example:

Not -v- for perfect?

Well, the -r- seems to be more indicative of perfectivity compared to -v-. Also less confusion between -r- and -b-:

1st conj

amav-i-t
amav-er-a-t
amav-er-i-t

2nd conj

monu-i-t
monu-er-a-t
monu-er-i-t

Even the 3rd conjugation doesn't even have -v-

leg-i-t
leg-er-a-t
leg-er-i-t

4th conj

audiv-i-t
audiv-er-a-t
audiv-er-i-t
