λον Κανί[νιον —]. The text is very mutilated.
Remarks: The person is perhaps to be identified with L. Caninius Gallus, who was with Cicero
in Athens in 51 B.C., see Cic, Tarn. II. 8, 3. According to F. Münzer, RE III 2 (1899)
1477, s.v. Caninius [3], he cannot be regarded as a praetor of Achaia, but in RE
Suppl. I (1903) 273 he takes the opposite position, quoting also the Epidaurian
inscription. He is to be identified with the person mentioned in an inscription from
Thespiai (A. Plassart, BCH50, 1926, 438, no. 74); see also PIR 2 C 389; Broughton,
Magistrates II, 209; K.-L. Elvers, Der neue Pauly2, 963 [1] s.v. Caninius.
