ROMAN PERSONAL NAMES IN ARCADIA
the 3rd century A.D. (see Kajanto, Onomastic studies, 34 sq.; id., Gr. epitaphs, 41-
42; D.J. Georgakas, "On the nominal endings -ις, -tv, in later Greek", CPh 43, 1948,
243-260) and the suffix -ας, also attested in this list of names, which is also to be
found in late antiquity (see H. Solin, in: Roman onomastics, 8).
6. Μ(ΑΡΚΟΣ) ΑΝΤ[Ω]ΝΙΟΣ ΑΥΓΚΕΓΥΣ]
IGY1, 131 [2nd c. A.D. (from the style of the letters)].
Tegea (Doliana); a column bearing an honorary inscription erected by the polis for the person,
one of the archons of the town, who were in charge of erection of some unknown building:
Ή πόλις έ[κ] Ι των ίδίω[ν] Ι τους κείοΙνας άνέσ[τη]Ι 5 σεν έπιμ[ε]1ληθέντω[ν] Ι των άρχό[ν]1των
Μ. Άντ[ω]Ινίου Λυγκέ[ως] Ι 10 και Άφρο[δεισί]Ιου τοϋ —.
Remarks: LGPN ΙΙΙ.Α, 277 gives only this example of the name Lyngeus.
7. Μ(ΑΡΚΟΣ) ΑΝΤΩΝΙΟΣ ΟΝΗΣΙΜΟΣ
IG V 2, 50, 1. 78 [έτους μβ' από της θεοϋ Γ Αδριανοϋ Ις (sic) την Ελλάδα παρουσίας=Α.ϋ.
166].
Tegea (in the region of the gymnasium); list of ephebes.
Grammateus
Remarks: The chronology is given in the inscription as έτους μβ' από της θεοϋ 'Αδριανοΰ ίς
(sic) την Ελλάδα παρουσίας. In IG the inscription is dated in A.D. 155-156. The
first visit of Hadrian to Greece was in A.D. 124/5 (see Halfmann, Itinera principum,
191), so the inscription is to be dated in A.D. 166.
8. Μ(ΑΡΚΟΣ) ΑΠΠΑΑΗΝΟΣ TI[B(EPIOY) ΥΙΟΣ - - -]
IG V 2, 155; A.J.S. Spawforth, "The Appaleni of Corinth", GRBS 15, 1974, 301-303 [3rd c. A.D. (?)].
Tegea, found in the area of the agora (now in the public park next to the restored Byzantine
church of Panagia in Episkopi); honorary inscription on an octagonal statue base erected by
the polis of Tegea with the consent of the boule for the named person. The inscription is
restored by F. Hiller von Gaertringen as follows:
Μ(άρκον) Άππαληνόν [τον άξιολογώτατον] Ι ρήτορα, καθαρον λο[γισ]τήν, ή Τεγεατών Ι
πόλις vac. ψ(ηφίσματι) β(ουλης) vac. and by A.J.S. Spawforth as: Μ(άρκον) ^Αππαληνόν
Τι[β. υιόν - ca. 10- ] Ι ρήτορα, καθαρόν λο[γιστ]ήν, ή Τεγεατω[ν] Ι πόλις vac. ψ(ηφίσματι)
β(ουλής) vac.
Corinthian
Remarks: The first brief publication of the inscription is by V. Bérard, BCH 17, 1893, 11, no. 14,
who saw no more letters after Άππαληνόν, so Hiller von Gaertringen completes M.
Άππαληνόν [τον άξιολογώτατον] after the name. According to Spawforth, op. cit.,
302 the honoured person is the latest known member of the Corinthian family of the
