In this epigraphic document, Neikostrate, also known as Eutykhiane, a member of a noble family of Nysa ad Maendrum, is honoured by her hometown of Nysa for her virtue and nobility. Neikostrate, the daughter of Publius Aelius Iunius Marcianus, is mentioned as descended from <em>archiereis<\/em> and <em>stephanephoroi<\/em>. Although the inscription does not directly pro\u00advide information on whether Neikostrate and the mentioned member of the family fulfilled any offices in the city, the expression of \u201c\u1f00\u03c1\u03c7\u03b9\u03b5\u03c1\u1f73\u03c9\u03bd \u03ba\u03b1\u1f76 \u03c3\u03c4\u03b5\u03c6\u03b1\u03bd\u03b7\u03c6\u1f79\u03c1\u03c9\u03bd \u1f10\u03b3\u03b3\u1f79\u03bd\u03c9\u03bd\u201d which referred to sacred and epon\u00adymous offices in the inscription will provide an effective view in the evaluation of the inscription and social status of the family. Subsequently, in consideration of the fact that Nysa ad Maendrum has remarkable epigraphical data concerning elite women, the limited information related to Neikostrate\u2019s civic position is evaluated in the context of Nysaean noble women.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> Nysa ad Maeandrum, Neikostrate alias Eutychiane, Nysaean Noble Women, <em>Arhiereia<\/em>, <em>Stephanephoria<\/em><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u00d6z:<\/strong> Bu makale 2020 y\u0131l\u0131 Nysa ad Maeandrum kaz\u0131 \u00e7al\u0131\u015fmalar\u0131 s\u0131ras\u0131nda ele ge\u00e7en yeni bir yaz\u0131t\u0131 ele almak\u00adtad\u0131r.
