Slab of marble (26-37 x 55 x 19 cm; letter height: 3.5 cm). Found at Kerch in 1900, now in Kerch Historical and Archaeological Museum (inv. КЛ-265).

Caesius Phlegon.  The synod (synodos) gathered around Hermogenes the synagogue-leader (synagōgos) and Kallistratos the goodness-loving official (philagathos) set this up in memory of their own synod-member (synodeitēs).

Καίσιον Φλέγοντα σύνοδος, | ἡ περὶ συναγωγὸν Ἑρμογένη | καὶ φιλάγαθον Καλλίστρατον, | τὸν συνοδείτην || μνήμης χ̣[άριν].
