Φιλοκάλου καὶ Εὐτυχίδου τῶν ἀδελφῶν

Apparatus

Translation

Tomb of Philokalos and Eutychides, the brothers.

Commentary

For the tomb, see Wright, loc. cit. 44 f. The caduceus to the right of the panel appears elsewhere at Tocra as an ephebic symbol - and this quarry is very near the presumed Gymnasium ; but the reference is perhaps to Hermes Psychopompos.
