Τιβέριος Κλαύ-
διος Εὐτύχης
τῷ πατρὶ Εὐτύ-
χῃ καὶ τῇ τεκού-
5σῃ Γλυκέρᾳ vac.
ἐποίησα τὸ
ἡρῷον μνεί-
ας χάριν.
I, Tiberius Claudius Eutyches, constructed the tomb for my father Eutyches and my mother Glykera, in memoriam.
For the term τεκοῦσα (‘mother’) in lines 4-5, cf. MAMA XI 123 (1955/93: Akmoneia); MAMA XI 14 (1956/82: Apollonia). Tiberius Claudius Eutyches may be a relative of one of the most prominent families at Apameia in the second century AD, that of Ti. Claudius Mithridates (IGR IV 787; MAMA VI 182) and his descendants (IGR IV 790; MAMA VI 180).
