Σώστρατος Πρατάρχω

Πράταρχον Ἰάσονος

Untel fils d'Untel, Untel fils d'Untel, Sôstratos fils de Pratarkhos ont consacré la statue de Pratarkhos fils de Iasôn.

So-and-so son of So-and-so, So-and-so son of So-and-so, Sostratos son of Pratarchos dedicated the statue of Pratarchos son of Iason.

Il tale figlio del tale, il tale figlio del tale, Sostratos figlio di Pratarchos hanno dedicato la statua di Pratarchos figlio di Iason.

In IGCyr065200, col. ii, ll. 4-5, two contributors are mentioned: Pratarchos son of Iason for 300 drachmas and Sostratos son of Pratarchos for 250 drachmas. They were, as many others, father and son. Given that Pratarchos and Sostratos are two personal names attested in other inscriptions of Cyrene at a rather low rate (unlike the very common Iason) and on behalf of the lettering, we may assume that they are the two persons whose names are preserved here. The usual layout of momuments bearing statues or other images of honoured persons and the relative dimensions of the letters allow us to suppose that three persons (men or women) were mentioned in three columns at ll. 1-2, whereas the name of the honoured (father of the third donator) stood at line 3 at the accusative.
