See Pleket’s detailed commentary in his edition of the pedestal.
[x]–2 It seems that the recipient of the honors was a Roman emperor (“one of its [i.e., the synodos] members,” Greenewalt [SEG]). “La mention d’un deuxième consulat exclut qu’il puisse s’agir de Marc Aurèle…; il devrait donc s’agir…de Lucius Vérus ou de Commode” (AE).
1 Omega, without a horizontal line underneath, as from l. 9 onward.
