θήκη Γεωργίου σὺν Μαρίᾳ καὶ τέκνων.

Right half of a marble plaque. The back is rough, with grooves. The ends of each line of an epitaph in four lines survive, with a cross at the end of line 4. Letters are deeply cut and irregular, with incipient serifs and guidelines. The guidelines are ca. 40 mm apart in line 1 and 3, ca. 35 in line 2, and spaced ca. 8 mm apart; many letters do not follow the guidelines. The transcription in Lehmann and Holum is centered.
