A. the Sardian envoys to Delphi urged the city to accept their sacrifices, festival, games, and allegedly the pompe, as the people of Sardis propose to perform sacrifices and hold games in honour of Athena and king Eumenes II, entitled Panathenaia and Eumeneia, with a prize of crowns equivalent to the Pythian games (l. A.6-8, \u03c0\u03b1[\u03c1\u03b5]\u03ba\u03ac\u03bb[\u03b5]\u03bf\u03bd \u03c4\u1f70\u03bd \u03c0\u03cc\u03bb\u03b9\u03bd \u1f00\u03c0\u03bf[\u03b4\u03ad\u03be\u03b1]\u03c3\u03b8\u03b1\u03b9 \u03c4\u1f70\u03c2 \u03b8\u03c5\u03c3\u03af\u03b1\u03c2 \u03ba\u03b1\u1f76 \u03c4\u1f70\u03bd \u03c0\u03b1\u03bd\u03ac\u03b3\u03c5[\u03c1\u03b9\u03bd \u03ba\u03b1\u1f76] [\u03c4\u03bf\u1f7a\u03c2 \u1f00\u03b3\u1ff6\u03bd\u03b1\u03c2] \u03bf[\u1f53]\u03c2 \u03c0\u03c1\u03bf\u03ba[\u03b5\u03c7]\u03b5\u03af[\u03c1\u03b9]\u03c3[\u03c4\u03b1\u03b9] \u03c3\u03c5\u03bd\u03c4\u03b5\u03bb[\u03b5\u1fd6]\u03bd \u1f41 [\u03b4\u1fb6\u03bc\u03bf]\u03c2 \u1f41 [\u03a3\u03b1\u03c1\u03b4\u03b9]\u03b1\u03bd\u1ff6\u03bd [\u03c4\u1fb6\u03b9 \u03c4]\u03b5 [\u1f08\u03b8\u03ac\u03bd\u03b1\u03b9] \u03ba\u03b1\u1f76 \u03b2\u03b1\u03c3\u03b9\u03bb\u03b5\u1fd6 \u0395\u1f50\u03bc\u03ad\u03bd\u03b5\u03b9 \u03c4\u1ff6\u03b9 \u0395[\u1f50\u03b5\u03c1][\u03b3\u03ad\u03c4\u03b7\u03b9, \u1f61\u03c2 \u1f14\u03b3\u03c1\u03b1\u03c8]\u03b5\u03bd \u03c4\u1fb6\u03b9 \u03c0\u03cc\u03bb\u03b5\u03b9 \u03b1\u1f50\u03c4\u03cc\u03c2, \u03c3\u03c4\u03b5\u03c6\u03b1\u03bd\u03af\u03c4\u03b1\u03c2 \u1f30\u03c3\u03bf\u03c0\u03c5\u03b8\u03af\u03bf\u03c5\u03c2)

B. the Sardian envoys to Delphi urged the city to accept a horse-racing contest with status equal to the Olympic games, which the people of Sardis voted to add to the games that it performed for Athena Nikephoros and king Eumenes II (l.

Even though Eumenes II lost the favour of the Romans after the Third Macedonian War, he continued to be treated with great respect by other Greek states such as Sardis, in the words of Gruen (1984, p. 197): \u201cthere was some genuine gratitude paid for tangible benefits: the Attalids were saluted as patrons and protectors\u201d. This inscription may be a celebration of a military victory of Eumenes II against the Galatians (Gera 1998, p. 200 n.72), in fact, it may be interpretet as \u201ca confirmation (enthusiastically exploited by Eumenes and his successor Attalus II) of the Attalids\u2019 self-appointed role as the protectors and saviours of Hellenic civilisation against the barbarian\u201d (Thonemann 2011, p. 174). In general, with Kloppenborg (2020, p. 377), \u201ccultic associations for the Attalids have been attested througout western Asia Minor\u201d).
