Commentary

This fragment has been published from Oliverio's papers with neither image nor description of the stone, which seems to be lost.

There are apparently men's names at the genitive case at ll. 5 and 6, perhaps also at l. 4; the name at l. 3 might be at the accusative, but it is also possible to restore a nominative; the same applies to l. 2, where any case is possible. If it were that ll. 2 and 3 have an accusative, they might stand for persons honored by others, whose we would have only the fathers' names. The dedication of their statues might have been made ἐξ ἐπιδόσιος (l. 4?). All that is very uncertain.
