The inscription may be translated as: Year 225. Month/of Gorpiaios./The thirtieth [day]/The mother/Menestra/for her son. Loukios (the name Loukios is the Greek version of the Roman name Lucius)/her brother, Menogene/her sister, Apheias her/sister, Apelles /her father, Papylos her /husband and Papylos/the son of her sister,/Mnias, gave thanks. An interesting inscription. It is probably imperial in date. It may be from Macedonia because the month name is Macedonian, although these months were also spread to Asia Minor and the Near East after the conquests of Alexander. Asia Minor may be a better choice because a number of these people bear theophoric names related to the god Men, a particularly Asian deity. The prominence of women may (or not) also be important in linking it to Asia Minor (Lycia?). It is peculiar to have the mother named first and then her father and husband at the end. Presumably what is going on here is that something happened to the son of Menestra (probably illness of some kind). She and the rest of the family named here prayed to the gods to save the child, promising that they would give a thanks offering if he survived. The boy lived and they erected this stele in the temple precinct. 15.5 x 40 x 4.5 inches, lbs.
