Slab found in a private home in the vicinity of Kennez. The term phratores (cf. phratra) was a term used in Lydia for an association, here translated “brotherhood.”
The children and the members of the brotherhood (phratores) set up this monument. If anyone knocks down or vandalizes this monument, the gods will not be gracious to them or to their children, nor will the earth bear fruit for the offender.
Translation by: Harlandταύτην τὴν στήλην | ἔστησαν οἱ υἱοὶ καὶ οἱ | φράτορες. ταύτην | ὃς ἂν καθέλῃ ἢ ἀδι|κήσῃ, μήτε οἱ θεοὶ || ἵλεως αὐτῷ γένοι[ν]|το, μήτε τέκνων [ὄνη]|σις μήτε γῆ καρπο[φόρος].
