Commentary

Because a part is lost, it cannot be decided whether IGCyr062840 is the beginning of the same document or of a different one; anyway this is again a text in koine and should come from the Ptolemaic authorities.

The gods mentioned at l. 9 may be either traditional Greek gods or the divinised royals.

The inventory numbers show that at least some parts of the stone were already in the epigraphic collection at the time of the reorganization of the Cyrenaean antiquities after World War II care of Goodchild (from 1956 on) and before Fraser observed one of them. They were perhaps all found during the Italian period, like both fragments of IGCyr062830.
