Extract

Hiller vonGaertringen says of this inscription: ‘Lapis in obscuro loco collocatus est. In ectypis nihil fere dispeximus … Lectio e Koehlero et Velseno componenda est.’ I did not find the stone till my last morning in Athens: it is E.M. 6600; it is extremely illegible, and I had not time to move it to a really good light. But there are a few things to add, and the length of line can, I believe, be determined.

page 116 note 2 I have not checked the readings of I.G. I2. for line 35 except to verify εδοχσεν and to fix its place in the line, and therefore withhold any suggestions for 35 and the beginning of 36.

page 117 note 1 Mr. Tod, who kindly read the first draft of this paper, suggests that the absence of τεν before δεμοκρατιαν makes this supplement very questionable.—Lysias 13. 91 speaks of δήμον κάκωσισ: I cannot feel sure whether he is playing on an existing phrase or inventing a new and fanciful one, the Demos in loco parentis. Certainly κακῶ, κάκωσισ, are common words in Thucydides (see von Essen's Index), and are not restricted to parents. Restore alternatively β|λαϕσαι.
