262. ΟΥΕΣΠΙΚΙΑ ΠΩΛΛΗ
Α. Philadelpheus, AD 1918, Παρ. II, 11, no. 9, fig. 10 (SEG 1, 1923, 72; Mitsos, 158) [2nd/3rd
c. A.D.].
Nauplion; a grave stele decorated with a relief depicting a woman and a young boy (text
ARG 166).

*263. Μ(ΑΡΚΟΣ) ΟΥΕΤΟΥΛΗΝΟΣ ΣΕΞ(ΤΟΥ) ΥΙΟΣ KYPI(NAI) KEIBIKA ΒΑΡΒΑΡΟΣ
P. Charneux, BCH8Ì, 1957, 121-140, fig. 1 (AnnÉpigr 1958 II, 15; SEG 16, 1959, 257) [A.D.
169 or a little later].
Argos, in the parodos of the theater; an honorary inscription on a statue base decorated with
a cymatium:
Μ(άρκω) Ούετουλήνωι Σέξ(του) Ι υίώι Κυρί(ναι) Κειβίκα(ι) Βάρβάρωι, Ι άδελφώι Λ(ουκίου)
Καίσαρος, θείωι Ι Σεβαστών, συναποδήμωι θεοϋ Ι 5 Ούήρου έπί Παρθικήν στρατείαν, ύπάΙτωι,
ίερει Αντωνεινιανώι, στρατηγώι, Ι ταμίαι Αύτοκράτορος Καίσαρος θεοϋ Ι Αντωνίνου Σεβα­
στού Ευσεβούς, • τριΙ 10 άνδρωι · Χ(αλκοϋ) Α(ργύρου) Χ(ρυσοϋ) Χ(ωνεύσεως) Κ(ατασκευής).
consul, sodalis Antoninianus, praetor, quaestor, triumvir monetalis aere argento auro flando
feriundo.
Remarks: The abbreviations at the end of the text are to be interpreted as triumvir auro
argento aeri flando feriundo.
He is probably to be identified with [Μ(άρκον) Ούετουληνόν Κείβικα] Βά[ρβαρον],
who is attested in Olympia (IvO 541, A.D. 169; cf. EL 335) as ταμ[ίαν θεοϋ]
Γ Αδρια[νοϋ, πρεσβευτήν] θεοϋ Άν[τωνείνου Εύσεβοΰς Σεβαστού] γ'
ά[νδρών...ω]ν, δή[μαρχον (?)]. Completion of the Olympian inscription is
attempted on the base of the Argive one. A statue base from Attica is preserved
from a monument that Herodes Atticus erected in honour of the named person (SEG
16, 1959, 166; cf. also T. L. Shear, Hesperia 7, 1938, 328 and Philostr., V5 537 and
539). Vettulenus Civica Barbarus took part in the Parthian wars; he was consul of
the year A.D. 157. His cursus honorum includes the following functions: triumvir
monetalis aere argento auro flando feriundo, sodalis Antoninianus, sodalis Verianus,
quaestor, praetor, consul. About him and his family see R. Syme, "Antonine
relatives: Ceionii and Vettuleni", Athenaeum NS 35, 1957, 306-315 (=Roman Papers
[edited by E. Badian] Oxford 1979, 325-332, on the Argive inscription see p. 326)
proposing a different stemma from that of P. Charneux (BullÉpigr 1958, 230); W.
Eck, RE Suppl. XIV (1974) 845-846, s.v. Vettulenus [2]; G. Alföldy, Konsulat und
Senatorenstand unter der Antoninen (Bonn 1977) 169, 309, 324, 328, 365.

IG IV 1415; IG W 2 1, 682 (SEG 33, 1983, 301; BullÉpigr 1974, 489) [A.D. 161-180].
