The Greek text as given by Herrmann and Malay, New Documents.
3 νέῳ θεῶι (iota adscript only in the latter word): A. Balland, Fouilles des Xanthos VII (1981), pp. 48–49 discusses the title νέος θεός bestowed on Gaius Caesar who died in 4 AD (cf. his no. 25 and IGRR IV 1094 = IG XII 4, 2, 637 [Halasarna, Cos]). In the present inscription the emperor Gaius (Caligula) bears this title; he is elsewhere known as θεός (see no. 332) and as νέος Ἥλιος (Syll.3 798 = IGRR IV 145 [Cyzicus]). Caligula’s father Germanicus was called θεὸς νέος (IG XII 2, 212 [IGRR IV 74] and 213 [IGRR IV 75], Mytilene).
4–6 These lines have intentionally been deleted.
4 ⟦ - - Ἑρμ̣ογένη[ς]: SEG; Herrmann and Malay’s reading seems to be correct.
5–6 “On the occasion of the celebration of (the panegyris?) Augusteios for Augustus…” (Herrmann and Malay).
6 Α̣ὐ̣γου̣σ[τείο]υ̣: judging by the photograph, the reading and supplement are not beyond doubt. ἡ Αὐγούστειος, sc. (γενέθλιος) ἡμέρα? / ἑορτή? / πανήγυρις? (Herrmann and Malay). Cf. Sardis VII 1, no. 15 (“about the middle of the 2nd century A.D.”), mentioning “a subsidy toward their [i.e., of “certain persons”] loyalty to the Augusti.”
7–8 The Ταγηνῶν κατοικία is attested here for the first time.
9 For the expression ἐκ τοῦ ἰδίου βίου in Sardis, cf. no. 305, 6ff. and Sardis VII 1, no. 27, 12.
