Translation Damodika, daughter of Krates and wife of Hermogenes, son of Asklepiades. Greetings. My name is Damodika; Hermogenes is my splendid and honorable husband; the one who gave life to me is Krates. I die not without renown, for I leave behind a child and the fame of having won a glorious victory with the chariot. I could not see my husband when I died, because he was serving as ambassador in Rome and could not render the final honors.
