[1] Textual Note Our text follows I Rhamnous except for the addition of τις in 5 and the deletion of the σ printed after a lacuna at the end of 8.

Line 4 suggests that this honorific decree, most likely for a general or other military figure, was passed jointly by the deme Rhamnous and other citizen residents there. On the deme Rhamnous in general and its inscriptions see I Rhamnous 182.
