13. Dedication by Flavius Andronicus

Monument: A rectangular white marble base, with moulding at the upper and lower edges (0.57 × 1.165 × 0.485), which has been re-used.
Text: The first line—on the upper moulding—is from an earlier text, which has been erased from the face and replaced by the present text.
Letters: Line 1, 0.02; probably second century. ll.2-6, letters lightly cut, elongated and irregular; l. 3 was inserted after the main text had been cut and is in smaller letters (0.03-0.035) than those of the main text (0.04-0.05); lunate sigma and cursive omega.
Date: c. AD 337-350 (lettering, content).

With Good Fortune. Fl(avius) Andronicus, perfectissimus, made (this) and gave it to his own homeland.
