The Romans who here dedicate a structure for the Apameians are most likely also members of the association of Roman settlers attested in many other inscriptions at Apameia.

This was dedicated as sacred to the People of Apamea by Lucius Munatius Tertius son of Lucius of the Camilia tribe (i.e. a voting tribe at the city of Rome), Lucius Atilius Proclus son of Lucius of the Palatina tribe, Publius Carulius Pollion son of Marcus of the Collina tribe, Marcus Viccius Rufus son of Marcus of the Teretina tribe, and Marcus Porcius Onesimon. Construction was begun by the foremost Romans in the 130th year from their own resources.
