In our works at the Bursa Museum conducted for many years, we surprisingly managed to copy only a small number of dedications or inscriptions with religious content. In this paper, we publish and evaluate all the new dedications recorded during our museum research (except for no.9). Dedications are mostly in the form of stelai and new epitheta are attested in some of them. In addition to stelai, there are a few altars and one Zeus statuette. Some uninscribed artefacts are also included in the article. Many of them have been brought to the museum from Bursa and is vicinity and belong to Late Hellenistic and Roman Imperial Periods.
