Εὐμενίδι Μηλιχίωι

Pour l'Euménide, pour Mèlikhios.

For the Eumenide, for Melichios.

Per l'Eumenide, per Melichios.

Zeus Melichios is here named only with his epithet. However there is no reason to think that this became a divine name by itself.

The use of the dative is unique on such altars. Only this mention deserves fully to be said 'dedication', a term which we took conventionally for the many other instances with the genitive.

For a Eumenide at the singular see also IGCyr133800.
