Col. III. Line 28: Possibly descended from a notable family (stemma, P.A., 5003).

Col. IV. Line 19: The name jbaQtopv is new in Athens.

The surface of the stele below the register is little if any more damaged than the rest of the surface. The stele is preserved almost completely at the bottom. No slightest trace of a citation can be detected: although there was ample room (0.33 m.), the citations simply were not inscribed, probably through mere neglect, although there is one con- temporary parallel (76).

In both No. 77 and the present document, the name of the Secretary of the Boule and Demos appears as diJry-, and the Treasurer of the Boule as - - - -. It may be assumed that they are of the same year, and when the various restorations of names are made from one document to the other, the assumption is confirmed. Its most im- portant result is that study of the spacing in both yields a preference for the shorter name for the Herald, rather than the longer (lhtoxXrv TQtvsetesa). This would determine the date as 165/4 or later (p. 17); the lower limit is the Flutist's, 156/5-a period which suits the distinctive style, familiar to us in Nos. 84, 71 and 77 itself.

FRAG. Separate fragment with heading of a citation:

E [ f[ov]w

The arrangement is definitely stoichedon. We can observe on Frag. C that there was a wide margin between the left edge and the first stoichos. A similar wide margin on the right of the text is to be inferred; but it is also clear that this margin was generally neglected in the interest of syllabification. Thus one space (or, in line 5, two) might be left blank before the right margin proper; or the right margin might be invaded, but apparently only by one letter.

This is what one would expect, granted the stoichedon; but the arrangement is also violated by an excess of one letter in the missing first parts of lines 32, 56, and 59.

Syllabification is violated in lines 28-29 and 38-39. Vital parts of the restoration are not affected by these irregularities, and there can be no doubt, for instance, that the Herald was Eukles of Trinemeia and that the Flutist was Kallikrates of Thorikos. The date must therefore be after 166/5 and before 155/4 (pp. 17-18).

The stoichedon arrangement was generally abandoned in the period after 230. Modified as in the present instance, it occurs a very few times in the course of the second century (I. G., II2, 973; another at the Agora). Whether or not such instances are evidence of conscious archaizing, e models for the stoichedon design were of course abundantly visible on the Acropolis.

The document gives us the name of a hitherto unknown secretary; his patronymic may be guessed (N.P.A., p. 63), but the name Dionysodoros is common, and names in

Among the other names, that of KdoQrog, lines 45 and 49, is new to Athens.

A peculiar feature of the text is that the document, like 80, is to be inscribed sig XktQwTrQlov XlOtrov. This has enabled identification of one type of Athenian xk'Qowjvotov, for which see below, pp. 198 ff. With this in mind, the long gap between Fragments A

The right side of the stele is preserved, as I.G., II2, implies. The use of slightly larger letters for the register is a sign of lateness; the lettering agrees with the date.

In the portion preserved, the lettering is very regular. The gaps left in lines 10 and 11 are explained by the assumption of dittography rather than of irregular spacing.

The part missing in line 12 is probably to be restored from 79 which is of the same year (see commentary on 79). That inscription, with careful study of spacing, is the basis of most of the new restorations. It is clear that the Undersecretary was not named in the body of either decree. From the Secretary's demotic in line 5 we learn that the prytaneis honored were of Ptolemais.

81. Ilesperia, II (1933), p. 162, no. 8. ca. 169/8-156/5 B.C. Most of the lines have close to 48 full letters, but line 5 has 51. No violation of syllabification need be admitted (lines 3, 5, 15, 18). Line 4: allow for the patronymic. Line 5: the letters preserved are PYTANE!. Line 8: no blank spaces; insert aocbv after awapav[Cacra. Line 9: the Secretary was not Ma - - but Mv - -. See the photograph (loc. cit.): as often, anything except a good squeeze is deceptive. Line 12: the Herald: [WD0tox)v TeLveti,a] or [EWxJlA,r TQive,6EIa].

Line 13: the Flutist's demotic: [OoQlxtov]. Line 15: no blank spaces. The Priest was not cited even by title (see p. 15).

82. Agora I 706. Lower part of stele inscribed in three columns, of Hymettian marble; the left side is smooth-dressed with a shoulder cut near the bottom; the right side is more roughly dressed, the back rough-picked, the bottom jagged. Found on May 8, 1933, in the wall of a late pit, inside the colonnade of the Hellenistic Metroon.

Height, 0.365 m.; width, below, 0.467 m.; width, above, 0.45 m.; thickness, 0.11 m.

There are now sev-en connected fragments of Hymettian marble from a stele broken near the bottom an(l preserved on the right edge very nearly to the moulding, the beginning of which, a slight outward curve, is preserved at the top. The thickness is original. The lower two fragments were found late in 1932 in the wall of a modern house 632jlB in Section Z, and on March 30, 1933 in the samie place a third fragment was discovered. These were published by Meritt in Hesperia, III (1934), pp. 31 35, no. 21. On June 29, 1933, too late for more than brief notice at the end( of Meritt's article, four more fragments were discovered in the removal of more of the foundations of the same house, which had not been accessible theretofore.

from the freshness of the breaks that the builders of this house found the stele at a classical level in digging for their deep cellar, and broke it up for use in walls. The same vicinity produced several other prytany decrees. For the place of finding, see Ilesperia, IV (1935), p.474.

The text given above is complete in that it includes the part previously published by Meritt; but his discussion is naturally not repeated here, since further work has merely confirmed his conclusions. The restoration of the first decree may seem somewhat bold in view of the small number of letters actually preserved. This impression is not deceptive, but more can be said for the restoration as it stands than appears at first glance. It is based on a careful study of the spacing of the letters as determined by the (preserved) second decree; the spacing is highly regular. Even so, not certainty but mere probability has been attained. The name of the proposer, for instance, supplied in line 6 from line 36, gives a line of 451/2 letters, and the chairman of the proedroi, supplied as Iysaalag (or some such name) conforms to requirements equally well. There is more uncertainty in connection with the numerals in line 3, which has been restored exactly as line 44, where however the space available was greater.

A peculiar circumstance is to be noted in connection with the probability, yielded by the spacing, that the decrees were passed on the same day. The first decree, instead of being passed by the Demos, was passed by the Boule. This is a unique instance (p. 3, n. 2).

Since the Demos did in fact crown the prytaneis (lines 25-27), the constitutional irregularity is slight. It becomes intelligible in any case that the two decrees, one honoring the prytaneis and the other their officers, should have been voted in the same session, and even proposed by the same orator.

Also irregular are the citations between the two decrees. Besides the customary three, there is a fourth, for the Priest; possibly this additional honor was due to his having served as a prytanis (line 110). The citations for the other five officers probably followed the register.

Meritt's restoration of the secretary of the year of Mnesitheos in .LG., II2, 979 is now confirmed, and with it the new early date for the expressions xai' tSQovra and xar& 06edv. As has already been noted, the discrepancy of three days which these phrases specify in the sixth or seventh prytany had not appeared in the beginning of the second.

The tampering with the correct astronomical calendar, which xav' iSQeovra implies (Meritt in Hesperia, II [1933], p. 26), therefore took place at some time between the date of the present decree and of I.G., II2, 979. The total divergence of three days suggests an accumulation due to one day of discrepancy in each of three successive months, or in each of three pairs of months. For the count p^e' ExdSag, see Meritt in Hesperia, IV (1935), p. 559.
