Limestone inscribed block

Unknown

5th century BCE · Limestone · Greek and Roman Art

There are two inscriptions; one is a text in three lines of Cypro-Syllabic and the other is a single word in Greek, meaning "of Themias." The two may not be contemporary, and the Greek may have been added when the block was reused.
