For , a blessed spirit, (daughter) of Aslam, (son) of Buhaim, (son) of
Gusham . . . the sepulchre [was erected.).
Line 1: POAIMOY D. and M. who explain as a diminutive of Rohm.
The name of the dead woman was doubtless inscribed elsewhere on the member,
since τφωίσση is more plausibly to be explained as an epithet. The form occurs
as a variant of (cf. Wad. 1850; I.G. hi 889) in the following inscriptions
noted by Schweizer, Gramm, der Perg. Inscr. p. 140, n. 2: B.C.H. xvm (1894),
p. 443, no. 6; Ath. Mitt, xii (1887), p. 349, no. 109; Greek Inscr. Brit. Mus. iv 1,
no. 836.
On the name Γοσαρ,ος cf. no. 103. Ασλα^ος is a common name.
200. Tomb. (?) Copied by George Cavalcanty, the dragoman. No measurements
were taken. We cannot guarantee that the inscription was accurately copied or the
monument correctly drawn.

Ζεβιυας or Ζαβινας, i.e. αγοραστός, ‘chattel’, was a nickname applied by the Syrians
to the pretender Alexander II. The term obtained currency as a proper name; cf.
the Latin name Servius. Ζεβεινα (genitive) occurs in an inscription from Djilin pub-
lished by Fossey, B.C.H. xxi (1897), p. 41, no. 9. The genitive Ζεβινου occurs in A.A.E.S.

201. Lintel. On a lintel in situ, supported by two pilasters with handsomely
moulded caps. The door did not belong to a church because it opens to the east.
