Δημητρίου ἴδιος, Εὐμενίδων, Ἡρώων.

ἴδιος[^1][^a1]

[^a1: ἴδιος | Διός]

[^1: 'altare privato', Ferri]

Autel des Euménides et des Héros, appartenant en propre à Démétrios.

Altar of the Eumenides and of the Heroes, the own property of Demetrios.

Altare delle Eumenidi e degli Eroi, proprietà di Demetrios.

[...], 9.336 wrongly dates the inscription to the fifth century BC; [...] rightly pointed that the lettering is rather of the third century BC. The use of the koine in the name of the owner leads C. Dobias-Lalou to the same conclusion, more precisely in the first half of the century in view of the shapes of mu and sigma.

Ferri's drawing is very clear and the adjective ἴδιος is sure (for a similar use, see IGCyr007000). This formulation gives a clear confirmation of the meaning of personal names engraved beside divine names on or near the other altars of the area (IGCyr031100, IGCyr031300, IGCyr031400) and in other places.
