bibliography            

Block of white marble used as part of a building and found during excavations of the theater in the orchestra (32 x 108 x 100 cm). Only three words are still legible on the inscription ("sacred musical Severan. . . ") but this likely involves a synod of musical performers.

Too fragmentary to translate.
