Θεᾶι

À la déesse.

To the goddess.

Alla dea.

The most convincing parallels mentioned by Marengo of the use of the simple θεά are IGCyr002100 and IGCyr002300 from Taucheira, also for Demeter. The same name in IGCyr093200 is probably a different case.

The discovery of the base in the naos suggests that it is the cult statue; the statue of a single seated deity ([...]) rules out the reading as a nominative plural θεαί. It is likely that the main deity of a sanctuary may be simply called 'the goddess'.
