ΘΑΡΣΙΔΟΜΕΤΤΙΑΣΑΒΩΝΟΥΕΤΠ

θάρσι Δομεττιάς Ἀβωνου ἐτῶν π´

Be of good courage, Domettias, daughter of Abonos! Eighty years old.

θάρσι Δομεττιάς Ἀβωνου ἐτῶν π´

Tombstone, inscription complete. There is an omega framing the numeral of the last line, which is not a feature of other Golan burial markers. The forms of the names in this epitaph are also odd. The first is similar to that of an inscription from Farj (farj0001). Both are variants of the Latin name Domitius/a. The second name appears to be related to Αβουνου. The names might be read differentlyl, if the first is in the vocative or feminine: Δομεττία and Σαβώνου.
