Theudôros fils d'Hèrakleitos a consacré ce monument à Athèna.

Theudoros son of Herakleitos dedicated this monument to Athena.

Theudoros figlio di Herakleitos ha dedicato questo monumento ad Atena.

This inscription was known to Pugliese Carratelli only through a drawing of Oliverio's, not provided in the publication.

The condition of the stone, observed again in 1997 by C. Dobias-Lalou, was worse than in 1982, so that line 3 is now completely lost. But the photograph and squeeze made in 1982 allow a better reading at that line. The name of the dedicant has a dialectal form, as well as the ending of his father's name. This would be surprising if he was an Athenian. Moreover, the faint traces of alpha and iota at the end of the line and the space at left before the first letter make much more plausible a shorter restoration, namely the name of the goddess Athena: the base was a dedication and was placed where she was worshipped inside Apollo's sanctuary.
