Line drawing of MAMA XI 350 (Savatra 8: 1956-196)
The name Susanna was popular among the Christians of Lykaonia: cf. MAMA XI 351 (1956/201: Savatra); MAMA I 163 (Laodikeia); MAMA I 200 (Kınık, in the steppe east of Laodikeia); Cronin 1902: 356, no. 109 (Konya). The reading in lines 5-7 is certain, although I can find no parallels for the exact phraseology.
