- Bulunduğu Yeri
- Unknown provenance; the mention of Metras, priest of Zeus Drittes (= Driktes), may point to the area of Sardis, see nos. 318 (with the commentary on A) and 437. The present whereabouts are unknown.
- Tanım
“Marble stele in two joining pieces.…In the field between the first two lines, which is decorated with vegetation, there are two wreaths between three columns” (Malay).

2–8 It is noteworthy that Melitine’s son (l. 4) is called “Metras, son of Metrodoros,” while his father is called in l. 6 “Metras,” i.e., with the hypocoristic form of the name Metrodoros. Malay considers the possibility that Μητρᾶς Μητροδώρου ἱερεὺς διὰ γένους Διὸς Δρικτου, etc. (see no. 318, 1–5 [soon after 136 AD]) is the present younger Metras; he would have taken over the hereditary priesthood after his father’s death (in 93/94 AD if counted according to the Sullan era) and later been active as described in no. 318; Th. Corsten (SEG) thinks of grandfather and grandson. The count according to the Actian era (147/48 AD) would put the present inscription some ten years after no. 318; in that case the older Metras (also called Metrodoros) would be identical with the priest of no. 318.
