Comments: |
Base of white (‘Pentelic’) marble. Dedication of a statue to Ulpius Leuros and Flavia Habroia, parents of the benefactor Marcus Ulpius Eubiotos Leuros. The emphasis on the epigraphic text of Habroia’s role as mother of Eubiotos demonstrates that her statue was erected after the benefactions he offered to the city, perhaps as part of a family group set up by Eubiotos himself. |
