Garden Description

A fragmentary inscription found near Ilias in 1886 and dated by Ramsay to the fourth century records the end of a funerary dedication of a monument “in its own tomb garden (kepotaphon)” by a man, presumably a T. Flavius, to himself, his wife F(lavia) Eupos, and their two living children, T. F(lavius) Valens and F(lavia) Tatia.
