New Readings from Oinoanda (SEG 44, 1200), Olbasa (SEG 48, 1536), and Maionia

Abstract

This article offers corrections to three published inscriptions, from ancient Oinoanda (no. 1), Olbasa (no. 2), and Maionia (no. 3). In no. 1, the name and patronymics of an athletic victor are proposed to be Aurelius Aisimos, son of Aratos alias Hermaios, son of Thoas, and he is acclaimed with the title pleistonikes, “multiple victor” rather than hieronikes, “sacred victor”. In no. 2, the cognomen of the dedicant of an inscribed altar for the Sebastoi is re-read as Protes. Finally, in no. 3, a confession stele for a man cured of a broken leg, the syntax of the text is restored and elucidated by the emendation of a single letter.
