Παιανίκα Θεάρω γένευς

Θεάρω γένευς[^a1]

[^a1: Θεάρω γένευς | Θεαρωγένευς]

Paianika fille de Théaros, petite-fille d' Épigénès.

Paianika daughter of Thearos, granddaughter of Epigenes.

Paianika figlia di Thearos, nipote di Epigenes.

The beginning of l. 2 is slightly erased, probably for accommodation of another monument placed here. Our restoration at line 2 relies on the space available and on the regular spacement of the subsisting letters. This second name at the genitive may be that of Paianika's grand-father (our translation) or her husband's, but in such a case the word γυνά would be expected.

The sustaining wall of the terrace was wholly uncovered during the excavations of the area West of the Strategeion under Pernier's responsability during the summer 1930. The publication of the inscriptions was delated because of World War II. Parisi Presicce excavated the area again from 1987 on. He suggested that the present inscription was a dedication to Παίαν by a thearos (sacred ambassador), a reading that does not take all elements into account.
