I, Pallas, made the [tomb] for my husband C. Iulius Neikias.
The omega in line 2 takes the form of a Latin letter U; line 5 is restored exempli gratia. Aside from the milestone published by Drew-Bear and Eck 1976: 294-6, no. 5 (Thonemann 2011a: 150-2), the only other inscription known from Yuvaköy is Drew-Bear 1978: 96-7, IV 33 (SEG 28, 1165).
