Iambadoule is the only epigraphically testified goddess, together with her consort the Thracian god Sbelsurd.[1][2] Iambadoule is equivalent to the demigoddess Iambe, first mentioned by Homer.
The inscription in ancient greek:
θεῷ Ζβερθούρδῳ καὶ Ἰαμβαδούλῃ ἐπιφανηστάτοις Αὐρ(ήλιος) Διονύσιος, στρατ(ιώτης) χῶρτις τοῦ πραιτ(ωρίου) ἑκατοντάρχ(ου) Φλωρεντίνου, θέλων ἀνέθηκα
Translation:
To God Zberthourdos (Sbelsurd) and Iambaldoule the eminent Aurelius Dionysius, a local soldier of the praetorian centurion Florentinus, wished to dedicate (this plate).
