The two fragmentary inscriptions presented herewith were unearthed at Aphrodisias in Caria during the 1963 and 1966 campaigns of excavation. Both, cut on panels of coarse-grained, white Aphrodisias marble, were found out of context in Byzantine fill, re-used as convenient building or paving blocks. The one (in two joining fragments) lay in the collapsed fill of a building complex subsequently suggested to have been a Bishop's Palace. The second fragment was discovered nearby in the excavation of the area adjoining the so-called Bishop's Palace, the Odeon and its porticus post scaenam. Their present interim and unedited publication is warranted by the significance of their contents for the history of Roman Asia Minor and the necessity of making them available without undue delay to interested scholars. Since a partial edition would be ill-advised at this point, and this writer lays noclaim to full expertise in Anatolian epigraphy, it has appeared judicious to offer merely an austere transcription of what can be read with certainty or reasonable probability, virtually without supplements. This publication does not therefore pretend to be an editio princeps.
