About the middle of the Piazza, upon another Pillar^ 
was this following Infcription.

This is as Perfe£b an Infcription as any I met with^ 
by the help of which we may make a Judgment of all 
the reft; at leaft thus far, that they were put up in 
Memory of fome, who had behaved themlelves, in 
thole Publick Offices they bore, either in their own Re- 
publick, or under thQ Romans , with Commendation f 
this being a Publick Place, Vv^here their Names and wor- 
thy Adions were Recorded and Tranfmitted to Pofte=- 
rity. What I further obierved particularly in this, was 
the want of the Name after lOT AfOT, and took 
notice of the like fpace vacant in the other Language 
under it; and in both places jt feemed to be not worn 
out with TimCj;' but voluntarily fcratcht out. Which 
confirms me in the Opinion that they are both one, and 
that the unkno A O was the Vulgar, as the Greek v^^as the 
Learned Language of tiie pkce. Upon another Pillar 
in the fame Walk was this.
