ΘΑΡΣ ΔΙΟΔ ΩΡΕ ΕΤΩΝ

θάρσει Δίοδωρε ἐτῶν

Be of good courage, Diodorus! ... years old.

θάρσει Δίοδωρε ἐτῶν

This is an incomplete tombstone inscription. The standard Greek opening "Be of good courage" is followed by the name of the deceased, but the age has not been preserved. The name given, Διόδωρε, is presumed to be a vocative for Διόδωρος. Dimensions given are for entire stone. Stone is broken along the right edge.
