Anax [---] (fille d')Anaxéas, prêtresse en même temps que Ba[kal?] fils d'Aiglanôr a consacré à Aphrodite (ce monument) ainsi que la table de pierre.
Anax [---] , (daughter of) Anaxeas, priestess with Ba[kal?] son of Aiglanor dedicated to Aphrodite (this monument) as well as the stone table.
Anax [---] , (figlia di) Anaxeas, sacerdotessa con Ba[kal?] figlio di Aiglanor ha dedicato ad Afrodite (questo monumento) come pure la tavola di pietra.
Pugliese Carratelli checked in the museum fragment a, of which he had found a copy in †Oliverio's papers. He also studied fragment b in the museum, but published it separately.
The restoration at ll. 3-4 of συνιαριτεύοισα gives a clue to the length of the other lines. This participle refers to a priestess of Artemis on duty during the same year as Apollo's eponymous priest, here mentioned ( pace Chaniotis) at the dative case with σύν before the verb.
The priestess' name might be Anax[ippa], Anax[ilea] or else. Anaxeas might be her father's name at the genitive case, but might also be the name of the man whose statue was dedicated, whence at the accusative.
A man named Bakal son of Aiglanor is mentioned on the contemporary base IGCyr096400. Although the context there is not clear, we have a slight preference for restoring this name at line 2, in spite of other possibe restorations.
The implicit monument bearing the panel should have been dedicated alongside with a stone (i.e. marble) table. It should be noted that at Perge in the Roman imperial period a woman was said to be τραπεζώ of Artemis (see Brixhe, Brixhe, Bulletin Épigraphique Brixhe, C.Bulletin Épigraphique in Revue des Études Grecques (REG)1987- - see in bibliography , 2000.625).
