Rhodos on Rhodes (Southeastern islands, Aegean Islands — Pleiades map), II BCE
IRhodPC 2
= PHI 189889
= AGRW ID# 14975
Copenhagen Inventory info: 1922
Fragment of a plaque of Lartian marble (32 x 24 x 9.5 cm). This extremely fragmentary inscription refers to an association of Zenoniasts (Zenoniastai), presumably a group founded by a man named Zenon or a group honoring a man named Zenon as a hero (see also IRhodPC 6 on this site).
Too fragmentary to translate.
