Round base found in Chorzum (114 x 59 cm). Magas is likely a Macedonian name.
The People and the Romans engaged in business (pragmateuomenoi) honored Magas son of Sakerdos Diagoras, both because of his father’s complete pursuit of honor in relation to the People and because of his untimely death in his fifth year, having shown promise of doing good towards the homeland.
