Greek Text

τέθαπται δὲ καὶ Κόνων καὶ Τιμόθεος, δεύτεροι μετὰ Μιλτιάδην καὶ Κίμωνα οὗτοι πατὴρ καὶ παῖς ἔργα ἀποδειξάμενοι λαμπρά. κεῖται δὲ καὶ Ζήνων ἐνταῦθα ὁ Μνασέου καὶ Χρύσιππος ὁ Σολεύς, Νικίας τε ὁ Νικομήδου ς ζῷα ἄριστος γράψαι τῶν ἐφʼ αὑτοῦ, καὶ Ἁρμόδιος καὶ Ἀριστογείτων οἱ τὸν Πεισιστράτου παῖδα Ἵππαρχον ἀποκτείναντες, ῥήτορές τε Ἐφιάλτης, ὃς τὰ νόμιμα τὰ ἐν Ἀρείῳ πάγῳ μάλιστα ἐλυμήνατο, καὶ Λυκοῦργος ὁ Λυκόφρονος.

English Translation

Buried here also are Conon and Timotheus, father and son, who after Miltiades and Cimon were the second pair to achieve illustrious deeds. Here too lies Zeno, son of Mnaseas, Chrysippus from Soli, and Nicias, son of Nicomedes, the finest painter of animals in his day; and Harmodius and Aristogeiton, who slew Hipparchus, the son of Peisistratus; and the orators Ephialtes, who especially curtailed the privileges of the Areopagus, and Lycurgus, son of Lycophron.
