Abstract

This article presents five late antique inscriptions found in Side in the last few years. The first inscription concerns the construction of the Arcadian Forum consecrated by a governor. The second and third inscriptions refer to construction work in the main street, mentioning the name of a pater civitatis, Georgius. The fourth one was set up in honour of Helena, mother of Constantine the Great. The last one records donations by Conon and Modestus, two lectors of a church.
