Description: A white marble lintel block, broken in two (w: c. 1.15 × h: 0.15 × d: 0.455) over the entrance to a tomb chamber. A second chamber was subsequently constructed at right angles to the first, and the lintel over its entrance abuts on to our inscription, partially obscuring the right end.
Text: Inscribed along the face.
Letters: The angular letters are similar to those of 13.113; 0.035. The Υ at the end of the name is 0.045, and the one letter serves as the ending of the two words in the genitive.
Date: Fifth century or later.
Findspot: Aphrodisias: Necropolis, North-east: in the Turkish cemetery (which lies over an earlier cemetery).
Original location: Necropolis, Turkish cemetery: chamber tomb
Last recorded location: Findspot.
