The Council and the People honoured with the finest and greatest honours Timokles son of Apollonios the son of Hypsikles,
a wise man, fine and good, of a leading family of highest repute, who was a generous and beneficent gymnasiarch and stephanephorus,
a high priest of the Augusti, a president of games, twice feasted the people, and did all with magnificence, splendour and
lavishness from his own funds in a manner worthy and appropriate to the fatherland and his family.
