Inscriptions from Cyzicus

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  23 December 2013

Extract

1. On a slab of marble, ht. 10½ in. × 10 in., found within the walls during the tentative excavation. It is broken on the lower edge, but the other edges are fairly complete. The greater part is occupied with a relief representing Hermes and a goddess who is presumably Andeiris (Fig. 1). Both figures face the spectator: on the left Hermes (apparently beardless), wearing short girt chiton, chlamys, and petasos, stands at rest with caduceus along left arm, and right hand resting on hip: on right is Andeiris, a draped woman. Unfortunately this figure is broken away diagonally from the left shoulder to the right breast, and the surface is injured throughout. It is consequently impossible accurately to distinguish the details.

page 199 note 4 If there were two eponymous hipparchs of the same name within the century, it seems probable that the second at least would be distinguished by his patronymic. Possibly the insertion of the patronymic of Gorgippides in 1. 3 may be due to some such cause.
