On ϊαρ,αρος see no. 494. The name Θερ,ο^ουσαρης, ‘Servant of Dusares’, has been
restored by Clermont-Ganneau, R.A.O. iv (1901), p. 117, in an inscription from Dera
published by Brunnow in M.N.D.P.- V. 1899, p. 81 = P.A. n, p. 259, no. 7 (Θε[ψι]α<?ουσα(ρ)ους,
see however, R.A.O. loc. cit. note 1). The name is certainly to be read in M.S.M. p. 294,
no. 165 = Wad. 2070c == I.G.R. 1111285, ©[sjtfxotiou[σαρους . .]. In our inscription the
reading is happily beyond a doubt.
509. Stele. Standing with base embedded in the ground at the left of no. 508.
Height above the ground 88 cm.; width 31^ cm. The upper part of the face is well
finished, the lower part is rough. Height of the inscription 72 cm. Height of letters 6-9 cm.
Γοίεος Οσαιδου ετ(ών) π.
i. e. Gudaiy, (son) of Usaid.
For Γο^εος see nos. 506 and 507. ΟσαΗος is the same as Οσεό'ος, which occurs in
nos. 511. and 515; compare Οσεό'αθ·/? in nos. 73 and 485.
510. Stele. Standing with base embedded in the ground in front of no. 509.
Height above the ground 74 cm.; width 25 cm. The surface is fairly well finished.
Height of the inscription 48 cm. The letters in the lower lines are indistinct. Height
of letters J-fK cm.
Αλεμαυος ΐοθαιβου ε’τ(ών) /.

We have found no other example of either name in Greek inscriptions.

finished. Height of the inscription 27 cm. The letters are finely cut and shallow. Height
of letters 6-7 cm.
Οσεό'ος ετ(ών) ε .
The name, the Arabic original of which is Usaid, occurs also in nos. 509 and 515.
It should be noted that here, as in previous instances, nos. 400 and 436, a stele with
a rounded top is used, although the dead person was a male; see no. 436.

1.04 m., at the right edge i.iom.; width 33-36 cm. The face is half finished. Height
