This grave and area belong to Publius Aelius … Hermogenes son of Charopeinos (?). His son (?) … will be buried in it, his wife, Soteris, has been buried in it, and Hermogenes will be buried in it as well, but no one else. But if someone violates this by burying someone else here, that person will pay 2500 denarii to the … most holy treasury (?), 1700 denarii to Apollo, and 800 denarii to the one prosecuting the case. The guild of dyers (bapheis) will supervise the grave. He has provided the grave–crowning funds, as contained in the document about the grave–crowning funds, in order that the grave–crowning funds be given each year in the amount of 1000 denarii (10) … a copy of this inscription has been put into the archives.
