During an assembly of the entire People (dēmos), … the Council, the People (?), … and the Roman … settlers (?) honoured Proclus Manneius Ruso son of Publius, of the Romilia tribe, a good and generous man, because of his ancestors’ and his own incomparable benefactions towards the homeland. (10) He fostered the city (polis) in many difficult circumstances, he served on embassies to the Augusti concerning important matters, and he was successful in gaining favours from the high–priests. On behalf of the city, he acted in a manner that was advantageous for the People on every occasion and increased the (20) revenues of the People. Those working (ergastai) on Thermaia street (plateia) have set up the statue under the care of Eumenes son of Dionysios and Julius Doubassion and in accordance with the decree of the city.
