Fragment from the right edge of a Koan honorific decree dating to the late third century BC for an unnamed individual involved in the defence of Halasarna, perhaps against Macedonian attacks. Herzog associated PH 7 with ED 17; Segre, in turn, grouped ED 17 with ED 26, 130 and 194, but not with PH 7 (Iscrizioni di Cos pp. 24-25). Since all five fragments share the same lettering, letter size and line interval, it seems most likely that they all belong to the same inscription - of which ED 110 may be a sixth piece. |
