Agathippos fils d'Autoklès a consacré ce monument à Apollon au titre de la dîme.

Agathippos son of Autokles dedicated this monument to Apollo as a tithe.

Agathippos figlio di Autokles ha dedicato questo monumento ad Apollo come decima.

Only the main fragment (a) was seen by G. Pugliese Carratelli in 1960 and published by him. Fragment b was probably already digged out at the time, as C. Dobias-Lalou found it there in 1977 and no excavation took place in that area before the years 1990.

The first name is not complete. Although he did not mention it, Pugliese Carratelli perhaps saw a tiny part of an oblique stroke near the break at left, which was clear to C. Dobias-Lalou. This might explain why he did not consider another possible name, Xanthippos, which was at the time also absent from the Cyrenaean stock, and choose Ἀγάθιππος, only attested in this occurrence at Cyrene. We now hold this restoration for sure. Of the father's name there are a few instances in the region.
