A New Funerary Inscription from the Kırşehir Museum

Year 2021, Volume: 7, 98 - 102, 31.12.2021

Abstract

The article publishes a new funerary inscription of the Roman Imperial period now located in the Kırşehir Museum (Cappadocia). The stele was erected by a couple for their eight-year-old daughter, who seems to bear the distinctive name Λαζουρη. There follows an epigram in her memory which combines a series of fairly common formulae, though a few particularities or difficulties of interpretation remain.

Thanks

Cemil Koyuncu would like to thank Dr. Senem Dinç and the Kırşehir Museum for permission to publish the inscription, which he autopsied on several occasions. Jan-Mathieu Carbon has assisted him using photographs. We are both very grateful to C.P. Jones for sharing some preliminary thoughts on the decipherment of the epigram.
