In this contribution, an inscribed stone from Beydili, a village on the borders of Pisidia, is introduced. This inscription was placed in the wall of a modern fountain constructed from ancient material. The inscription was brought from an ancient settlement called Asarbaşı, an area located ca. 1 km northwest of Beydili and which has not yet been investigated. The stone bearing a relief of a sword-shield belonged to an exedrion built by a certain Maisolos, a priest, for himself and for his family members. This inscription records an indigenous personal name, Bliddis, previously unattested. Furthermore, there is a new word, ξιμει (dat. of ξιμις?), the meaning and the position of which should be clarified. This word probably indicates the name of an ancient settlement near Beydili or is perhaps a divine name.
