Anaxiléa, prêtresse d'Artémis la même année qu'Hagèsitratos fils de Po[...], a consacré une phiale de 100 drachmes d'argent d'Alexandre.

Anaxilea, priestess of Artemis the same year as Hagesitratos son of Po[...], dedicated a phiale of 100 silver drachms of Alexander.

Anaxilea, sacerdotessa di Artemide nello stesso anno di Hagesistratos figlio di Po[...], ha dedicato una phiale di 100 dracme d'argento di Alessandro.

أناكسيليا ، كاهنة (أرتميس) في نفس السنة التي كان فيها هاجيستراتوس بن بو [---] كاهناً، أهدت كأساً يُكلف [100 من] دراخمات الإسكندر الفضة.

It is not clear whether the console shape corresponds, as supposed by Oliverio, to a re-use later than the inscription. The phiale might have stood on the console near the inscription, which would have been readable if the console was not fixed too high.

The priest of Apollo with whom Anaxilea was priestess is very plausibly the one recorded in the account of damiergoi IGCyr014300 with the same name and only the first letter of the father's name, whence the date proposed by [...]. for this father's name, Dobias-Lalou at [...] looked for a short name and suggested Πόλων. Rosamilia, finding this restoration too short, suggested rather the typically Cyrenaican name Πολιάνθης, which in turn is rather long. In fact, there are also other names beginning with Πο and the question should perhaps remain open.

At the end of l. 2, σύν might be added, see IGCyr092000.

For other dedications with the weight/value mentioned in drachms of Alexander, see IGCyr125600 and IGCyr127500, the latter preserving the number 100 restored here and in the former by Rosamilia. For the adoption of Alexander's silver drachma, see [...], p. 240. About Alexandre's silver, see [...].
