Text

[---]  κοινὸς 'Δ' [άματρι?]

Apparatus

1 'Δ' : Δ : O (Boardman)

French translation

 [---]  en indivision avec D[èmèter?] (?).

English translation

 [---]  joint to D[emeter?] (?).

Italian translation

 [---]  in comune con D[emetra?] (?).

Commentary

As the last letter seems to be Δ, corrected from O, it is conceaveable from the context of find that there was a phrase like κοινὸς ἐὼν τῶι θεῶι with Demeter's name; that formula is used about a man bound to a dedication, whose properties are considered jointly owned with a god even after his death (see IGCyr016700, l. 58).
