Abstract:
I commence this review with a major contribution to the study of women in the ancient Greek world. The public invisibility of women in the poleis of the archaic and classical period is a well-known phenomenon; equally well-known is the fact that this starts to change from the Hellenistic period onwards, when developments in the culture of evergetism and in honorific practices created a niche for women to be publicly visible and honoured by their communities. Przemysław Sierkierka, Krystyna Stebnicka, and Aleksander Wolicki have published a two-volume collection of all public honorific inscriptions for Greek women from the classical to the Roman imperial period. The work excludes honorific inscriptions for Hellenistic queens and female members of the Roman imperial family, thus focusing on honours for Greek citizen women and foreign women. The first volume includes a book-size introduction to the history of public honours for Greek women, examining diachronic changes and offering an overview of the language of inscriptions and the repertory of honours provided. At the same time, the introduction offers an extensive discussion of the role of women in the public life of Greek cities in the long term. The first volume also includes the corpus of inscriptions from Aegean Greece, the Balkans, and Sicily and Italy in the West; the second volume largely focuses on Asia Minor, while also including the few relevant inscriptions from Cyprus, Syria, Egypt, and Cyrenaica. Each inscription is described in detail, while the Greek text is accompanied by an English translation and followed by a focused commentary. In line with the other major corpus under review here, this editorial choice to provide translation, bibliography, and commentary will make these volumes an impressive research tool for both specialists and non-specialists. I admit that I was really surprised by the quantity of the surviving material: the volume includes 1128 inscriptions from 238 communities. While many of these inscriptions are short, formulaic, and repetitive, the information provided on a substantial number is truly fascinating for Greek social history and the history of women.

Abstract:
This article reconsiders a set of Late Roman inscriptions which record the tax liabilities of dozens of landowners in terms of post-Diocletianic fiscality. The stones, from eleven cities in the Aegean and western Asia Minor, are evaluated as evidence for the social and economic history of the Late Empire, challenging Jones' fundamental study in which the inscriptions are read as a sign of structural crisis. With their non-Egyptian provenance, the inscriptions offer unique, quantitative insights into land-ownership and labour. The inscriptions reveal surprising levels of slave labour in the eastern provinces, particularly in a new inscription from Thera. This last document allows, for the first time, an empirical analysis of the demographics of an estate-based population of slaves in antiquity.

AbstractThe price inscription on an Attic black-glossed lekanis is discussed. The lekanis was found during the excavations of one of the houses in the Greek colony of Euesperides. Its significance is considered alongside the small number of price inscriptions known from Cyrenaica. Price inscriptions draw attention to the low value of Attic pottery in antiquity, and the Euesperides graffito is considered against some of the literary and epigraphic evidence used in recent discussions.

Abstract:
This article present and contextualises five new inscriptions from central Crete: one from the hinterland of Gortyn, two from Knossos, and two more in all likelihood from Knossos. Internal geographical mobility from Gortyn to Knossos is illustrated by a Greek inscription from the hinterland of Gortyn. The Knossian inscriptions add new evidence for the local affairs of the Roman colony. A funerary or honorary inscription and two religious dedications – all three in Latin – give rise to new points concerning the well-attested link between Knossos and Campania. The colony's population included people, many of Campanian origin, who were already established in Crete, as well as families displaced from southern Italy in the great post-Actium settlement. The two religious dedications shed light on the city's religious practice, including a newly revealed cult of Castor, and further evidence for worship of the Egyptian gods. Oddest of all, a Greek inscription on a Doric epistyle names Trajan or Hadrian. These four inscriptions are then set into the context of linguistic choice at the colony. Epigraphic and numismatic evidence for the use of Latin and Greek in the life of the colony is analyzed on the basis of the available inscriptions, listed by category and date in an appendix.

ABSTRACT: A black-figure amphora from the sanctuary on Mt. Hymettos preserves one of the longest Attic inscriptions of the 7th century b.c., presenting a remarkable case for the integration of a postfiring inscription into the morphology of an early Greek vessel. This article explores the materiality of the amphora and its lacunose inscription, proposing a new reconstruction of the text. The inscription’s peculiar arrangement and unusual verb suggest that it once included one of the earliest signatures of a craftsman in Attica. The study also investigates—but does not embrace—the possibility that the individual mentioned is the earliest Attic potter/painter known by name.

Abstract:
AbstractFour fourth-century ad inscriptions of Ezana, first Christian king of Aksum (Ethiopia), are surveyed, with special attention to Ezana's only known post-conversion inscription, written in Greek. Greek syntax and terminology in Ezana's inscription point to an anti-Arian Christology which may be associated with Frumentius, first bishop of Aksum, and his connection with Athanasius of Alexandria. The inscription's trinitarian formula “the power of the Father and Son and Holy Spirit” is structured in such a way as to assert the identity of the three members of the Trinity. The phrase “in the power of God Christ” further equates Christ with God. This christological language stands in contrast to the Arian imperial policy of the time, and is historically significant in light of Constantius's attempt to force Frumentius's recall to Alexandria. This inscription serves as the first internal documentary evidence for an anti-Arian Christology in the earliest developments of Ethiopian Christianity.

Abstract:
This paper publishes nine new inscriptions copied during the archaeo­logical surveys conducted in the Phrygian city of Akmoneia and in its territory between 2014 and 2017. Even though there have been no systematic excavations to date, the city is remarkable due to its rich epigraphic documentation. The new finds make a notable contribution to this. Of the nine inscriptions published here, one (No. 1) concerns the erection of the statues of Koros, the goddesses, as well as of the sacred council, by a certain Hierokles, the priest and the agonothete of the Great Asklepieia. In another inscription (No. 2), a woman called Flavia Hedeia, the daughter of Flavius Montanus of consular rank and the wife of Sallius Aristainetos of consular rank, is honoured by her foster-parents. We attempt to identify Flavius Montanus through some related inscriptions already published from the city and thereby propose a dating in the mid-3rd century AD. Nos. 3–6 are grave inscriptions and they all date from the Roman Imperial period except for No. 6. Even though the remaining inscriptions (Nos. 7–9) consist of fragmentary texts carved on architrave blocks, they still provide valuable information, such as proving the existence of a gymnasium, as well as a fountain house in Akmoneia.

Abstract:
Abstract The Greek inscriptions from Central Asia give information mainly on the three centuries before our era, particularly on the 3rd and 2nd century BC. In the Greek inscriptions from Central Asia, we notice the absence of any sign of a civic life; the inscriptions, however, clearly show firstly on which cultural frontier the Greeks of Central Asia lived and secondly how proudly they asserted their cultural identity. The presence in Central Asia of a living Greek culture is unquestionable, and the most striking fact is that the authors of the inscriptions were proud of the Greek culture. Their Greek names however do not necessarily reveal the ethnic origin, and we do not know whether among them there were “assimilated” Bactrians or Indians. The Greeks, at any rate, constituted a limited community of people living very far from their country of origin, at the borders of two foreign worlds (Iranian and Indian) which were far bigger and older than theirs.

Abstract:
The text presents several unpublished Greek inscriptions written on the scrolls of St. Cyriacus the Anchorite from Bulgaria. The main focus falls on an inscription from the narthex of the Rozhen Monastery (sixteenth century) and its identification; parallel inscriptions observed in Athonite monasteries are discussed too. A second group of inscriptions from Bulgaria and Macedonia are also discussed, with a stronger focus on an inscription in the church St. Apostles Peter and Paul in Veliko Tarnovo. The linguistic analysis attempts to discern the patterns by which such ascetic texts are visualized and transformed along the way from their original textual source to their final destination - the wall painting.

Abstract:
In this dissertation Athenian inscriptions, granted during the fifth and fourth centuries down to the death of Alexander the Great, are analyzed. The evidence includes grants of citizenship, proxenia, epimeleia, enktesis, ateleia, and isoteleia to deserving foreigners. During the fifth century, Athens used these grants, particularly the proxenia, as one means to keep her predominant position in Greece. Other honors were also used for this purpose, such as the offer of protection, and to some degree citizenship honors. In their domestic affairs, Athenians used enktesis, ateleia, and isoteleia as rewards, especially for resident aliens. According to epigraphic evidence, the ateleia and isoteleia decrees show no increase during the fourth century, while the greatest number of proxeny decrees were passed from 353 to 323 B.C. Although honorary decrees were awarded liberally during this time, there was no steady increase from the fifth century down to 323 B.C. During the period from 399 to 354, the number of extant honorary decrees is rather small. Particular attention is paid to an analysis of the development of each honor, the identification of the individuals involved, and their relation to the Athenian people.

Abstract:
Three inscriptions on amphorae from Phanagoria have published in the article. The inscription no. 1 was made on a Chios amphora dating to the second quarter of the Vth century BC. It reports «Πυρρίης Κλαυσει ΑΙ». The name Πυρρίης has found for the first time in the anthroponymy of the Bosporan cities. This is the Ionian form of the ancient Greek name Πυρρῖας. The letters ΚΛАΥΣΕΙ present dat. sing. of the male name Κλαυς. The name Κλαυς is incited on a black-glazed stemless pallet dating from the second quarter to the middle of the Vth century BC from Phanagoria. It is assumed that the name Κλαυς represents an early version of the Ancient Greek transliteration of the Cilician name Κλους. The abbreviation AI has been interpreted as «αἴθοψ οἶνος». An analysis of the testimonies of Ancient Greek authors has showed that the phrase hides a certain sort of red wine from Chios – seasoned dark-red wine, which the Ancient Greeks named «black wine». Thus, the inscription no. 1 reports «Pyrries to Claus some seasoned black wine». The inscription no. 2 is represented by the letter «A» scratched on the neck of a Chios amphora dated to the 3rd quarter of the VIth century BC. It is widely believed that the letter A on amphorae is an abbreviation of the phrase «ἀμπέλιος οἶνος, – grape wine». The inscription no. 3 informs «μέλαιναι Νίκωνι, – many black to Nikon» and it is written in red paint on the fragment of a Thasian amphora. It dates from the second half of the Vth - the first half of the IVth centuries BC. The analysis of the tes timonies of ancient Greek authors has revealed that adj. pl. fem. μέλαιναι refers to black olives. Traditionally, ancient Greeks ate them in crushed form. New and published dipinti and graf fiti on amphorae from Chios and Thasos from Phanagoria, have given rise for a conclusion about the regular supplies of olives from Thasos from the second half of the Vth – beginning of the IIIrd centuries BC and several sorts, mainly, red wine from Chios in the last third of the VIth – IVth centuries BC. The archaeological materials from Phanagoria have provided us with information about several sorts of the Chios wine contained in amphorae. The abbreviation «ΑΙ» is interpreted as «αἴθοψ οἶνος, – seasoned red wine»; «ΑΥ» – «αὐστηρὸς οἶνος,– dry red wine». The name «Χῖος οἶνος», hidden under the abbreviations «X», «XI» of the amphorae, apparently, should be considered as the name of a closer unknown variety of Chios wine. The name «ἀμπέλιος οἶνος, – grape wine», which was denoted by the letter «A» on amphorae, is a generalized name for wine. Such a definition may be hiding under it some apparently dry and cheap wine, brought in amphorae, including from Chios.

Abstract:
К настоящему времени лапидарий Фанагории насчитывает (с учетом публикуемых) 100 древнегреческих надписей. Для 1000-летней истории крупного античного города эта цифра выглядит весьма незначительной. Пять новых надписей из раскопок Фанагории в 2019 и 2021 гг. представлены в статье. Надпись № 1 вырезана на небольшом мраморном прямоугольном блоке и датируется концом 1 в. до н. э. – первой половиной 1 в. н. э. Сохранилась правая часть трехстрочной надписи. Внешний вид мраморного блока с надписью дает основание предполагать, что он служил основанием для вотивного приношения (небольшой статуэтки?). Надпись на нем была, видимо, посвятительной, имя божества располагалось в начале надписи и не сохранилось. После имени божества вырезаны имена и отчества трех дедикантов. Полностью сохранилось отчество последнего посвятителя – Батий. Надпись № 2 представляет собой остатки шести строк на правой стороне мраморной плиты. Надпись неясного содержания и датируется второй половиной 2 в. н. э. Предполагается восстановления нескольких личных имен. Надпись № 3 вырезана на колонне серого мрамора и содержит посвящение Богу Высочайшему неким Юлием (полное имя не сохранилось). Оно датируется 60-ми – началом 70-х годов 2 в. н. э. Посвящение Богу Высочайшему встречено в Фанагории впервые, несмотря на широкое распространение этого монотеистического культа в крупных боспорских городах в 2–3 вв. н. э. Надпись № 4 вырезана на блоке мраморовидного известняка значительного размера. Она датируется 217 г. б. э. и поставлена от имени общины Агриппии (быв. Фанагории). Внушительные размеры блока позволяют думать, что блок был частью какого-то городского сооружения, и надпись на нем была, по всей видимости, строительной. Надпись № 5 вырезана на мраморной плите и представляет собой фрагмент, по мнению автора, строительной надписи царя Рескупорида II (210–227 гг.). В надписи, предположительно, сообщается о восстановительных работах городских стен, башен и их фундаментов. Эти работы были осуществлены попечением эпимелета, чье имя не сохранилось. Today, Phanagoria’s lapidarium has a hundred ancient Greek inscriptions, including the ones published here. Considering the thousand-year history of a large ancient city, this amount seems very small. Five new inscriptions coming from excavations at Phanagoria in 2019 and 2021 are discussed in this article. Inscription 1 is carved on a small rectangular marble block and dates to the end of the I century BC – first half of the I century AD. The right part of the three-line inscription has been preserved. The appearance of the marble block with the inscription suggests that it served as the basis for a votive offering or, maybe, a small statuette. Apparently, the inscription was a dedicatory one. The name of the deity was located at the beginning of the inscription and is not preserved. After the deity’s name, names and patronymics of three dedicants are carved. The patronymic of the last initiator, Bates, has been fully preserved. Inscription 2 represents the remains of six lines on the right side of a marble slab. The in scription’s content is unclear. It dates between the second half of the second century AD. Several names are expected to be read on the inscription. Inscription 3 is carved on a grey marble column and contains a dedication to the Most High God by a certain Julius (his full name has not been preserved). It dates back to the 60–70 AD. A dedication to the Most High God is seen in Phanagoria for the first time, despite the wide spread of this monotheistic cult in large Bosporan cities in the second–third centuries AD. Inscription 4 is carved on a block of marble-like limestone of a rather big size. It dates back to 217 CE and was erected by the community of Agrippia (former Phanagoria). The impressive size of the block suggests that the block was part of an urban structure, and the inscription on it was, apparently, related to construction. Inscription 5 is carved on a marble slab. It is only preserved fragmentary. According to the article’s author, it is a part of a building inscription of King Reskuporides II (210–227 AD). The inscription, presumably, talks about the restoration work of the city walls, towers and their foundations. These works were carried out under the care of epimeletos, whose name has not been preserved.

Abstract:
FROM THE NEOLITHIC TO THE 9th CENTURY – MONUMENTS OF THE PRE-GLAGOLIC GRAPHIC CULTURE IN THE BULGARIAN LANDS (Summary) The article presents the earliest monuments of written culture from Gradeshnitsa, Karanovo, and Dolnoslav, as well as the use of Greek, Latin and Gothic alphabets. Greek script in inscriptions in the Greek language has been recorded on a large number of epi¬graphic monuments in the Bulgarian lands, spanning more than a millennium. Latin writ¬ten culture came with the creation of the Roman provinces Macedonia, Thrace and Moe¬sia (after 86 AD, Moesia Superior and Moesia Inferior). Geographically, Latin inscrip¬tions, containing public, religious and private texts, were scattered across the Bulgarian territory, having a greater density in the north of Bulgaria. Special attention is given to the Proto-Bulgarian runes and inscriptions as a specific phenomenon of profound significance. An assumption is made that they provided the basis for the Bulgarian literary tradition, laying the groundwork for a new written culture in an own language and letters.

Abstract:
The author is publishing a fragment of new Greek inscription on marble found by accident on the place of the settlement on the Cape of Zyk (the ancient Bosporan town of Chersonesus of Zeno). It is a part of a decision or decree of thiasotoi – members of voluntary association. It was adopted by the priest, the paraphilagathos and the gymnasiarchos whose names are unfortunately lost except two letters in the priest’s name Pe(….) and three letters in the gymnasiarchos’ farther’s name (…)ean(…). The latter is restored as personal male name {Th}ean(gelos)? popular among members of the Bosporan associations in Imperial period. We now have five inscriptions from Chersonesus of Zeno which belong to the associations of its citizens. Their study allowed the author to attribute all of them to one and the same thiasos which was active in course of the 2-3rd centuries AD and united the inhabitants of this town, mostly the Greeks by origin. Besides publishing the newly discovered document the author corrects the early suggested reading and interpretation of three other inscriptions from Chersonesus of Zeno. He admits that two separated pieces – one earlier attributed as the official decree or a letter of king Cotys III and dated to the time of his reign, and the second one, defined as a list of the thiasotoi, are in fact two fragments of one inscription – edict of the Zenonites’ association, ad opted in the time of Cotys III by the head of the union, presumably the synodos with the priest and probably the parahilagathos at the head. He also gives a vast commentary to other inscriptions – one mentions “the father of synodos”, and the other which is a list of thiasos’ members. He corrects the reading of one of the names in this list to be restored as (Pol)yaenos but not as Hroxenos. The association in Chersonesus of Zeno stands close to the associations of Panticapaeum and Tanais. The author made a complete study of the organization, activity, logistics and policy of the Bosporan associations towards the royal power, having admitted that synodoi could hardly be separate voluntary or alternative unions at Bosporus. They were initially sacred groups in the thiasoi but later, since the late 1 – 2nd century AD, started to function as their praesidium, i.e. head or council of associations, which included members of high position.

Abstract:
This paper continues the series of corrections to some published inscriptions from Cim merian Bosporus. No 22 (Fig. 1) presents the corrected lecture of votive inscription from the excavations in Panticapaeum at 2008. No 23 & 24 criticizes some general approaches to discus sion and inaccuracy of A.V. Belousov. No 25 (Fig. 2, 3) demonstrates the A.S. Balakhvantsev’s priority of understanding of the inscription on the bronze cauldron founded in Volgograd region. No 26 revises the A.V. Belousov’s lecture of the inscription on the bailer from the kurgans excavations in Rostov‑on‑Don region at 1927. No 27 (Fig. 4) reinterprets the graffito of ΑΡΠΑΤΡΙΣ as the name of hetaera from Phanagoria. No 28 presents some examples of the utilization of the token τράχηλος in the Greek epigraphy. No 29 shows the futility of the A.V. Belousov’s reasoning about the genres of the Greek lead letters and the curses tablets. No 30 (Fig. 5) insists than the lead tablet from Panticapaeum necropolis mentioning 18 times ἀνώνυμος is the prayer to Jews God. No 31 (Fig. 6, 6a) demonstrates than the graffito from the burial on the Taman’ peninsula has a magical character. No 32 (Fig. 7) proposes the cor rect lecture of the third Spartocids decree from Phanagoria. No 33 discusses some answers of N.V. Zavoykina. No 34 (Fig. 8) understands the initial letters of graffito from Ak‑Burun as initials from some personal names. No 35 (Fig. 9) reads the letters on the big marble bowl from Gorgippia as the dedication to the δῆμος. No 36 presents some observations about the cult of oikistes in Phanagoria. No 37 decodes the numbers on the amphora from the Kerch Museum. Nos 38–43 (Fig. 10) demonstrates the S.Yu. Saprykin’s inaccuracy in Greek and epigraphical discussions.

Abstract:
Animal bones comprise the only category of evidence for Greek cult which is constantly significantly increasing. The use of ever more sophisticated excavation methods demonstrates the importance of zooarchaeological material for the study of Greek religion and how such material can throw light on texts, inscriptions and images, as the animal bones constitute remains of actual ritual actions and not mere descriptions or representations of these actions. This paper outlines some areas where the zooarchaeological evidence may be of particular pertinence, for example, in elucidating the complex and idiosyncratic religious terminology of shares of sacrificial victims mentioned in sacred laws and sacrificial calendars, or in providing a context for a better understanding of the representations of animal parts on Attic vases. The role of meat within ancient Greek society, the choice of sacrificial victims and the handling of “non-sacrificable” animals such as game, dogs and equids within Greek cult can also be clarified by comparisons with the animal remains.

Abstract:
In 2001, 2002 and 2004 two hearth altars (escharones) were excavated in the Sarapieion C on the island of Delos in Greece. They contained remains of sacrifices, notably rich zooarchaeological evidence, which has thrown light on the rituals practised in this sanctuary. The inscriptions are silent on this matter and the study of the bone assemblage thus constitutes important evidence. The rituals involved sacrifices of poultry (Gallus domesticus), making up 90% and 70% of the bone material collected in each hearth altar deposit, respectively. These poultry sacrifices were combined with those of small ruminants and pigs. The handling of the victims differed according to the species: the cocks and hens were consecrated whole while only parts of the sheep and the pigs were offered. The two altars excavated in the Sarapieion C do not belong to the same period and a study of the bone evidence brings out distinctions between them. The oldest altar was no doubt abandoned when the younger one was brought into use, probably at the end of the 2nd century BC. It is interesting to note such differences that perhaps are to be explained by the development of the ritual practices in the sanctuary during the 2nd century BC. The zooarchaeological material also gives information on the performance of the sacrifices, which differed in accordance with the animal species involved. All the bones from gallinaceous birds show traces of carbonization and these burnt bones indicate sacrifices of entire animals, of the holocaustic kind. The bone evidence from the small ruminants and pigs are partially burnt and some bones are even unburnt, which indicates only a selective burning of the bodies. One can of course compare the sacrificial practices identified in the Sarapieion C on Delos with those studied at other sanctuaries dedicated to the same divinities and thus demonstrate the presence of a possible “koine” in Isis worship. However, similar sacrifices were also performed in cults of healing deities (foremost in sanctuaries of Asklepios). Historical interpretation should thus proceed with caution.
