Translation:
The Council and the People and the gerousia honoured with the finest honours Ammia daughter of Attalos the son of Pytheas, of a foremost family and one which participated in the foundation of their country, engaged in gymnasiarchies and stephanephorates. She was the wife of Adrastos son of Neikotimos Hierax, the son of Artemidoros the son of Zenon, stephanephorus and public servant, and she lived with discretion and so as to demonstrate virtue. Adrastos son of Neikotimos, her husband, set up her honours.
