bibliography            

Fragment of a marble base. This very fragmentary inscription involves honors for C. Perelius Aurelius Alexandros, who is honored as high-priest of an athletic organization. The same man is honored by another guild at Thyatira (see TAM V 1019).

Too fragmentary to translate.
