The units figure in the date is uncertain. Professor Littmann noted on his copy that
in what appears to be the name of the month the N before the final OY seemed to be
certain. The name Panemos, however, fits the lacuna, and may be regarded as highly
probable at least. The dots, one at each side of the final I, are to be noticed. Such dots
occur with I in a good many Syrian inscriptions, most of which are comparatively late.
1140. House, 424 a. d. On a lintel lying upside down in front of its jambs,
in the ruins of a private house a little west of the center of the town. Div. II, b,
p. 254, Ill. 264. The inscribed fascia is at the bottom of the lintel, below the mouldings.
It is 1.20 m. long and 17 cm. high. The letters, 3 to 6 cm. high, are incised and well
cut: the inscription practically fills the fascia upon which it is carved. Copied by
Professor Littmann.

114i. House(?), 453 (?) a. d. On the lintel, in situ, of a building with a portico
within a courtyard, in the north-western part of the town. See Div. II, b, p. 253,
Ill. 263. The block measures 1.94 m. by about 40 cm. In the center is a small disk,
20 cm. in diameter, containing a cross in relief below the surface. The letters are
from 4 to 8 cm. high. Those at the left of the disk are 14 cm. from the bottom of
the stone; the second line, at the right of the disk, is 9 cm. from the bottom. Professor
Littmann, who made the copy, says that the lintel is complete at the left end: that the
first two letters, however, KY, are altogether uncertain. The other letters are at best
indistinct.
