A total of five funerary inscriptions are presented in this article. One of them comes from the city of Kütahya (no. 1), the other four were found in the village of Çakırsaz in the district of Altıntaş, about 47 kilometres south of Kütahya (nos. 2–5). The first inscription on a sarcophagus is the first evidence of a probable close relationship between two previously known sculptors from the region. The second inscription is on one of the common door stones in the area and belongs to a married couple. The third inscription is an epigram for a local dignitary who was a Christian. The fourth inscription probably belongs to another door stone and apparently refers to a woman. The fifth inscription of a field guard probably provides the first evidence for the term sophodragates.
