Heraclides son of Zenon, Alexandros son of Zenon, and Apollonios son of Zenon prepared the platform where those who prepared it and their wives will be buried in the middle burial place; no one else may be buried in the middle burial place. In the burial places on either side their children and grandchildren and families shall be buried; each shall be allowed to bury two friends there. Farewell. They are alive.
