Özet
This article discusses four honouring inscriptions found in the ancient city of Aizanoi during the 2021 and 2022 excavation seasons. Except for inscription 2, all of them are quadrangular bomos-type statue bases and date to the Roman Imperial period. Inscription No. 1 belongs to Lucius Claudius Lepidus, lifelong high priest of Emperor Commodus, high priest of Asia, and neochoros of the temples in Smyrna. It dates to the 3rd quarter of the 2nd century AD. Lepidus was honoured at Aizanoi with a series of statue basis as stephanephoros and agonothetes. These were known to have been erected by the phyle of Heracleas and Hadriane. With this new inscription, the phyle of Asclepias has been added to the phylai of Aizanoi honouring Lepidus. The phyle of Asclepias was the phyle whose name was first encountered during the excavations in the theatre in 2020. Inscription number 2 is the honouring of (---)nios, who served as chreophylakes, by the Assembly and the People. The office of chreophylakia was one of the most prominent offices in Aizanoi and is found in inscriptions honouring the elite citizens of the city. Inscriptions 3 and 4 are bomos-type statue bases and are contemporary. Both inscriptions belong to persons honoured by ? ??????. Inscription 3 honours Philiskos, an ephebos. Inscription 4 belongs to stephanephoros Nei-kostratos, honoured by his homeland. © 2023, Akdeniz Universitesi - Akdeniz Dillerini ve Kulturlerini Arastirma Merkezi. All rights reserved.
