Κεφαλίων Καφισοδώρω

Képhaliôn fils de Kaphisodôros.

Kephalion son of Kaphisodoros.

Kephalion figlio di Kaphisodoros.

We suppose this inscription to date from the Hellenistic period. Kephalion is already attested in Cyrenaica and other names deriving from that of the river Kaphisos are already attested too. This one is a compound in -δωρος, of which we have many examples that may be explained by the fact that rivers were considered deities. It means 'gift of the Kaphisos'.
