Apparatus

In ll.5 and 6 Reinach read nothing; Robert read in l.5, Φλ(?) Εὐτόλμιος Τατια[·· ? ··]. The restoration here is based on very unclear readings.

Translation:

Flavius Honorius, of divine descent, most dear to God, the most renowned. [[Flavius Eutolmius Tatianos, the clarissimus, prefect of the sacred praetorium]], dedicated (this statue) with the customary devotion, in the time of Antonius Priscus, clarissimus praeses.
