ROMAN PELOPONNESE I Remarks: For the cognomen Urbanus see ACH 75 (C. Clodius Urbanus). The Aemilii of Patrai may have been related to the Aemilii from Kleitor attested in Olympia (IvO 473-474; cf. EL 10 [1A] and [IB]). s. of Aemilia Erotis (ACH 4) and b. of Aemilia Secunda (ACH 5) 12. t [.] AENI(US) SECUNDUS T(ITI) F(ILIUS) CIL III, 525; *Rizakis, Achaïe II, no. 135 [lst/2nd c. A.D.]. Patrai; a stone bearing the funerary inscription of the family of Turpilii, perhaps forged (Mommsen): T(itus) Turpili(us) Aug(ur) sibi et Manli(us) T(iti) f(ilius), Aeni(us) I Secundus T(iti) f(ilius), Agele f(ilia) Vallia p(ecunia) s(ua) et iu(ssu) I Turpiliae Nice f(ilia) lib(ertis) libertab(us) suis poster(isque) I et Turpiliae Nymphae et libertis posteris. I 5 H(oc) m(onumentum) h(eredem) n(on) s(equetur). Remarks: For a general comment see ACH 233 (T. Turpilius). Aenius is quite a rare gentilicium, cf. Schulze, 11; it is also known from Corinth in the mid-2nd c. A.D., (cf. COR 23 and 24). s. of Titus Turpilius Augur (?) (ACH 233), b. of Manlius s. of Titus (ACH 156), Agele Vallia (ACH 236) and Turpilia Nice (ACH 231); perhaps also b. of Turpilia Nympha (ACH 232) 13. AEPICIA NICE CIL III, 519; *Rizakis, Achaïe II, no. 85 [lst/2nd c. A.D.]. Patrai; a marble funerary altar or pedestal for the named person and L. Curtius Onesiphorus: L(ucius) Curtius I Onesiphorus,I Aepicia Nice. Remarks: Mommsen, CIL III 519: Aicia. Both names are very rare; for references see Rizakis, op. cit. 14. AEQU[- - -] I. Papapostolou, AE 1983, 32; id., Dodone 15.1, 1986, 265; *Rizakis, Achaïe II, no. 208 [lst/2nd c. A.D.]. Patrai, found in 80, Ermou Street; a fragment of a mutilated funerary marble plaque: vac. Va [- - -] I v(ivus vel -iva) · Aequ [—]. Remarks: The nomen is to be restored either as Aequ[anus] or as Aequ[ana]. This gravestone comes from the excavations of the mausoleum of the family of the Aequani, just as the funerary epigram of Sex(tus) Aequanus Sex(ti) l(ibertus) Astius (ACH 19), a freedman of this family. 54

ROMAN PERSONAL NAMES IN ACHAIA v.'.'iÄ-:..· ' ^ . : v.:i. 15. AEQUANA ILGR 75; *Rizakis, Aciïaie //, no. 118 [2nd c. A.D.] Patrai, found at the crossroads of Ermou Str. and Corinthou Str.; marble plaque bearing the funerary inscription of a libertus of the person: Antae, I Aequanae lib(erto). Remarks: The patroness of a freedman is usually referred to only with her gentilicium, whereas the patron is normally indicated by his praenomen, cf. Thylander, Épigraphie latine, 63; G. Fabre, Libertus. Recherches sur les rapports patron-affranchi à la fin de la République romaine (Rome 1981) 116-17. For her social status see ACH 17. The person belongs certainly to the known family of Patra's Aequani; see below ACH 16. 16. AEQUANA SEX(TI) F(ILIA) MUSA CIL III, 510; *Rizakis, Achaïe II, no. 5,1. 4-6 [beginning of the imperial era]. Patrai; a stone, now lost, with an inscription commemorating the offices of the named person, who was honoured by a decree of the decuriones with an image and two statues: Aequanae I Sex(ti) f(iliae) Musae I sacerd(oti) Dianae lAug(ustae) Laphriae et I 5 sac(erdoti) Aug(usti) imagine I et statuis II (duabus) [hjon(orata) I d(ecreto) d(ecurionum) I Sex(tus) Anus I pa[t(er)]. sacerd(os) Dianae Aug(ustae) Laphriae et sac(erdos) Aug(usti) Remarks: Aequana Musa, member of one of the most important colonial families in Patrai, was the priestess of both Augustus and Diana Augusta Laphria. Outside Patrai the gentilicium is rare in the Greek provinces. It is known only by an inscription from Olympia (IvO 361; cf. EL 11) and another from Thessalonike (IG X. 2, 1, 628a). 17. (AEQUANUS) ANTAS AEQUANAE LIB(ERTUS) ILGR 75; *Rizakis, Achaïe II, no. 118 [2nd c. A.D.]. Patrai, found at the crossroads of Ermou Str. and Corinthou Str.; marble plaque bearing the funerary inscription of a libertus of the person: Antae, I Aequanae lib(erto). Remarks: Antas is attested as a male cognomen at Caesarea Mauretania, Athens and Rome, see Rizakis, 7oc. cit. The position of his cognomen at the head of the onomastic formula stresses his inferiority and is used when the patron himself was a freedman, see G. Fabre, Libertus. Recherches sur les rapports patron-affranchi à la fin de la République romaine (Rome 1981) 104-05. 55
