Peek: [Α πόλις ά τών Έ]πιδαυρίων Ι [Ίουλίαν Ιουλίου] Εύρυκλέους γυναίκα, Ι [άρετας

grave stele decorated with a relief and bearing the funerary inscription of the person plus a
later one on the right side of the stone:

Peek 1972, 43, no. 78, facsimile [3rd c. A.D.: Peek].
Epidauros, sanctuary, Tholos; a statue base erected by the polis of Epidauros for the person,
who was strategos of the polis:
FA πόλις ά τών Έπι]δαυΙ[ρίων Ιούλιον Αγρίπ]παν Ι [στραταγόν, τον έα]υτάς Ι [εύεργέταν].
Remarks: The restoration of the name and of the whole text by Peek is based on the
identification of the person with an Iulius Agrippa, strategos of the Achaean Koinon,
attested in the inscription /v0487 (Syll. 3
893) from Olympia (cf. EL 233). Since the
inscription from Epidauros is very fragmentary, his hypothesis seems very unlikely.
