Apollodôros fils d'Euagoros.
Apollodoros son of Euagoros.
Apollodoros figlio di Euagoros.
With this ending at the genitive, the father's name was not the more usual form in -αγόρας, but a variant in -άγορος; such variant names are rare elsewhere and unknown for Cyrenaeans, but for a visitor at Philae (SEG Supplementum Epigraphicum Graecum, Leiden, then Amsterdam, 1923-1971, then 1979- - see in bibliography , 31.1523) who seems to be a Cyrenaean.
