Ἄριστις Φίλωνος Ἀπόλλωνι δεκάταν τὰς τριήρης τὰς ἔλαβον ἐγ Κυράναι τῶν πολεμίων· σὺν Σθένωνι ναυάρχωι ἐγ Χερνάσοις μίαν, σὺν Καλλίππωι στραταγῶι ποτ᾿ ἀῶ μίαν, σὺν Ψάφωνι ναυάρχωι ἐν Εὐεσπερίδεσσι μίαν.

Aristis fils de Philon a consacré comme dîme à Apollon les trières prises en Cyrénaïque sur les ennemis, une avec le navarque Sthénon à Khernasoi, une avec le stratège Kallippos du côté du levant, une avec le navarque Psaphon à Euhespérides.

Aristis son of Philon dedicated as a tithe to Apollo the triremes taken in Cyrenaica from the enemies, one with admiral Sthenon at Chernasoi, one with general Kallippos towards the East, one with admiral Psaphon at Euesperides.

Aristis figlio di Philon ha dedicato come decima ad Apollo le triremi prese nella Cirenaica ai nemici, una con il navarco Sthenon a Chernasoi, una con lo stratego Kallippos verso oriente, una con il navarco Psaphon a Euesperides.

(قدم) أريستيس بن فيلون لأبولو عشر عن السفن التي أخذت من الأعداء عند كيرينايكي، (التالي يبين نقاط متعددة على البحر) واحدةً بقيادة النافارخوس (قائد الأسطول البحري) سثينون عند خيرنيسوس، وواحدةً بقيادة القائد كاليبوس باتجاه الشرق، وواحدةً بقيادة النافارخوس (قائد الأسطول البحري) بسافون في يوسبيريديس.

The date of this inscription is deduced on prosopographical grounds by Oliverio, partly followed by Laronde, who nevertheless argued against Oliverio's idea of victories in the war against Thibro and preferred a slightly earlier date. His conclusions are endorsed by Rosamilia.

The holes for attachment on the upper side of the base are queer for a human statue, with only one foot resting on the ground.
