Apparatus

l.1, very probably Athenagoras was in the nominative case, but it cannot be excluded on the evidence available that the block was crowned by a moulding which carried the opening of the text, in which case a son or grandson of Athenagoras may have been recorded.

Translation:

[?Athenagoras son of Athenagoras] son of Eu[machos ·· ? ··.

Commentary:

For Athenagoras son of Athenagoras son of Eumachos, see 13.302 (= MAMA 475).
