<p>[QUOTE="lrbguy, post: 3044019, member: 88829"]I believe the first word in the third line ends in "...land" and is the name (<i>auf Deutsch</i>) of the province in which the city was located, as indicated by the second word in the third line which begins with a cursive "N" and is in fact "Nikopolis". So the later transcription of that city name in all caps should be rendered as the fragmentary transcription of the reverse inscription, in Greek uncials.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
