Abstract

In this small article, a mistake made in the "Kallippos" and "Moschos" entries in the dictionary "Künstlerlexikon der Antike" is corrected. The author of these entries T. Lochman stated that Kallippos and Moschos were two separate sculptors and consequently wrote a separate dic-tionary entry for each of them. The inscription on which Lochman based was found in As-pendos and inscribed in a curved manner on the skirt of the mantle of a Hera statue preserved today in the Antalya Museum (see fig. 1-9). The inscription is complete and it reads: Moschos, son of Moschos, also called Kallippos, from Synnada. In other words, the person who made this Hera statue is a single person whose name is Moschos alias Kallippos. It is understood that Lochman made this mistake because he possibly did not see the older publications where the inscription was publi¬shed, which made him think that two different sculptors were in ques-tion. Therefore, he provided two separate entries in the dictionary a mistake which is corrected now in this contribution.

Synnadalı Heykeltraş “Moskhos Kallippos”. Künstlerlexikon der Antike İçin Küçük Bir Düzeltme

Abstract

Bu küçük yazıda “Künstlerlexikon der Antike” sözlüğündeki “Kallippos” ve “Moskhos” maddelerinde yapılmış bir hata düzeltilmektedir. Bu maddelerin yazarı T. Lochman Kallippos ve Moskhos’un iki ayrı heykeltraş olduğunu belirtmiş ve her iki isim için ayrı ayrı sözlük maddesi yazmıştır. Lochman’ın temel aldığı yazıt Aspendos’ta bulunmuş ve bugün Antalya Müze¬si’nde duran bir Hera heykelinin mantosunun etek kısmına eğri olarak yazılmıştır (bkz. fig. 1-9). Yazıt tamdır ve Moskhos’un oğlu, bir adı da Kallippos olan Synnadalı Moskhos (yaptı). şeklinde Türkçe’ye çevrilebilir. Yani bu Hera heykelini yapan kişi tektir, adı da Moskhos Kallippos’tur. Lochman’ın, olasılıkla yazıtın yayımlı olduğu çok eski yayınları görmediği için hata yaptığı ve yazıtta iki ayrı heykeltraştan bahsedildiğini düşünerek sözlükte de buna göre iki ayrı açıklama verdiği anlaşılmakta ve bu yanılgı düzeltilmektedir.
