Marble altar. Here an association at Perinthos in Thracia (perhaps a group of immigrants from Apamea) expresses connections with the people of Apamea in Bithynia.

For good fortune! The sanhedrin (synedrion) of friends of Apamea dedicated this altar to Homonoia (i.e. Concord personified). Prosper!

ἀγαθῆι [τύχηι]· τὸ συνέδρ[ιον] | τῶν Φιλαπαμέω[ν] | τὸν βωμὸν || τῇ Ὁμονοίᾳ | εὐτυχῶς.
