Translation

The Gerousia, from their own funds, (honoured) Gaius Hosidius Iulianos, who dedicated for his fatherland a contest in the half-talent category, and dedications for the goddess; the overseer was Menandros son of Artemidoros son of Menandros son of Artemidoros son of Kikinnas, secretary for the second time.
