In lines 3-5, I assume that the sequence διαπεροντις represents διαφέροντες, i.e. Kallistratos’ ‘family’ or ‘household’. For this use of οἱ διαφέροντες in late antique epigraphy, cf. e.g. Miltner 1937: 43-4, no. 47 (Ankyra): [ὑ]πὲρ εὐχῆς Λιμενίου [π]ρωτίκτορος κὲ... πάντων τῶν διαφερόντων αὐτῷ; MAMA III 287 (Korykos), σωματοθήκη Γεοργίου [β]εστια(ρίου) κὲ Δομετίου κὲ τῶν διαφερόντων; IGLS IV 1267 (Laodikeia), [σορ]ὸς Ἰωάννου Ἀ[βδά]λλα κὲ τοῖς δι[αφέ]ροντες αὐτῷ.
