Τιβέριος Κλαύδιος Ἀριστομένης Μάγνος ὁ καὶ Περικλῆς ἱαρειτεύων ἐκ τᾶν τῶ Ἀπόλλωνος προσόδων

Apparatus

Translations

Ti(berios) Klaudios Ti(berius) Claudius Aristomenes Magnos, also called Perikles, serving as priest, dedicated this from the income of Apollo.

Commentary

The same man dedicated a statue of Apollo in the Temple of Artemis, C.290.

line 5: Smith and Porcher, followed by Vitali, suggested ἔκταν τᾶν τῶ Ἀπόλλωνος προσόδων; but this formula is without parallels at Cyrene where it seems to have been the custom to dedicate a tenth, rather than a sixth, to Apollo.
