[1] Like I Eleusis 203 (compare from the same period the better preserved I Eleusis 197) this is perhaps from an honorific decree of Athenians resident at and/or soldiers stationed at Eleusis. The inscription was cut by Tracy's "Cutter of Agora I 7181" (ALC, 62, 67), whose dated work spans 224/3-188/7 BC (cf. Horos 26-31, 2014-19, p. 46).
