On behalf of himself, his wife Patrophila, his children Nikias and Apollonia, and his relative Kleon son of Kleon, . . . Name son of Nikias, a member of those who wear black (melanēphoros), dedicated from his own resources the altars, the mosaic, the sphinxes, and the clock to Sarapis, Isis, Anubis, Harpokrates, and Hydreios (i.e. Osiris).
