Title: | Prytany Decree Fragments | |
Category: | Inscriptions | |
Description: | Inscribed fragments. Two fragments, both from the right side apparently of the same large stele. The stele had in late times been carefully cut up into small brick-like pieces of which these are two. Since the veins of impurities in these two fragments do not correspond closely, they must have been separated by a considerable interval in the stele. The stele was finished horizontally on top with an ovolo moulding on face A and on the sides. The sides are roughly hammer-dressed. The stele was opisthographic, face B having been inscribed subsequently, its text enclosed in a panel with pedimental top worked in low relief. Fragment Β 1832 a), from the upper right corner of the stele. On face A, thirteen lines of the inscription preserved, with a rasura beneath the first line; on face B, four lines. Fragment Β 1832 b), from the lower right corner of the stele. On face A, sixteen lines of the inscription preserved, the lower five in a corona; on face B, five lines. Pentelic marble. Cf. Hesperia Suppl. 4 (1940), p. 101. | |
