Commentary

Other editions include: Evangelidis, AD 11, 1927/28, 28, no. 12.

Robert reconstructed [ἅρματι] πωλικῷ Εὐκληια Μη[-] in l. 16, but [κέλητι] πωλικῷ is also possible. Since women rarely won the keles, the former reconstruction seems reasonable, albeit not certain.

Translation

in the four-foal chariot race: Eukleia, daughter of Me… (?)
