ROMAN PERSONAL NAMES IN ARGOLIS
Remarks: For the person see PIR 2 I 398; G. Alföldy, Konsulat und Senatorenstand unter der
Antoninen (Bonn 1977) 211-212 and n. 29 considers him to have been proconsul of
Africa or Asia about A.D. 141/2. Since he came from Asia, it is more probable that
he was a proconsul of Asia; for his origin from Nysa see Chr. Habicht, Altertümer
von Pergamon VIII3. Die Inschriften des Asklepieions (Berlin 1969) 59 and for the
importance of origin for the appointment of proconsuls of Africa and Asia see
Alföldy, op. cit., 119 ff. E. Dabrowa, The governors of Roman Syria fromAugustus
to Septimius Severus (Bonn 1998) 98-100; Th. Franke, Der neue Pauly6, 37 [II 84]
s.v. Iulius. For [3] see remarks of ARG 149 [3].

Remarks: The text in the first edition of IG has not been connected with Iulius Antoninus:
Άπόλλωνι Μα[λεάτα και Άσκληπιω] Ι εκ θεμελ[ίων τα και Ι ια (ve/ τα) και
πυρια[τήρια σύν τοις κατηρριμ (?)]Ιμένοις πασ[ιν άνεσκεύασεν έπ' άνθ]Ι 5 υπάτου

According to Giamalidis, loc. cit., the fragment IG IV 1510 preserving the following
text —"Αντ]ωνιν[ο—] I [—α]ντος τη— I [—Σ]υρίας άν— I—ς Χαιρ[—] I
του, is to be regarded as a fragment of the same inscription. In IG IV 2 1,454 the text
is published taking account of all the fragments.
