The stone bearing the following inscription was found by Mr. Theodore Bent last year at Limena in Thasos, built into the wall of a Byzantine church which was pulled down for the erection of a house. Mr. Bent made an excellent impression of the inscription, which he has kindly sent me; upon this the text is based. The inscription is entire on the right and at the bottom; the left and the top are mutilated. The existing portion measures just one foot in height, and nine inches in width. The surface is for the most part well preserved, and the readings are certain except at the beginning of lines 17—18, of which more will be said. The letters are engraved στοιχηδόν.
