Console of a column found in the southern portion of the colonnade near the theatre (47 x 51 cm). For honors by other associations for Hairane's father, see IPalmyra 55-56 on this site.

This is the statue of Septimius (?) . . . Hairan, the most illustrious son of Odainath, the most illustrious consul.  The symposium (symposion) of leather-workers (skyteis) and makers of leather rafts (askonautopoioi) honored their patron in the 569th year.
