Jesus (son of) Seilas. Sixty years old.

The inscription on this stone is complete, though the stone itself is in two pieces. A tabula ansata in relief frames the standard Greek funerary text. Both names mentioned are Jewish. This stone may have been placed in a mausoleum; it is elaborate and smoothly dressed, and does not have the tall, shaft-like shape of an ordinary tombstone.
