Die Melas-Brücke bei Kotenna und die Familie des Stanamoas

Abstract

One of the stone bridges that spanned the Melas during the Roman Empire was the “Gavur Köprüsü” near Kotenna. Compared with the neighbouring bridges of Oymapınar and Şahap, it was of only local significance, connecting the small poleis of Kotenna and Erymna separated from each other by the Melas canyon. Today, little remains of the bridge, but the building inscription cut into the rock on the western bank of the river is still preserved. It says that the bridge was built during the archonship of Orestes, son of Stanamoas and grandson of Setas. With the aid of two known honorary monuments from Kotenna it is possible to identify Orestes as yet another brother of Stanamoas II and Neoptelemos, who were prominent members of the local elite in the 2nd century AD. The article thus helps identify the position of the Stanamoas family in Kotenna
