Notes:

• "λόγος ἀναλώματος τοῦ νεκροῦ" literally means "account of expenses for the deceased."
• "βλάβη" generally means "damage" or "expense."
• "δραχμαὶ" (drachmai) and "ὀβολοὶ" (oboloi) are ancient Greek monetary units.
• "μισθὸς τοῖς ἠρκάσι" (corrected to "ἠρκόσι") means "wages for those who carried."
• "στεφανίων" refers to "wreaths," likely funeral wreaths.
• Some parts of the text are fragmentary and uncertain, indicated by brackets and dots.
