- Yorum
1 Antiochos I replaced Kelainai with the foundation of Apameia; the former name continued to be used (Robert, Noms indig., p. 338 with n. 3).
3 ὧι καὶ φιτύσασα: The use of active instead of middle voice is noteworthy; LSJ, s.v. φιτύω: “sow, plant, beget…–Med., of the woman, bear.” Robert, Noms indig., p. 338: “notre épigramme montre que la règle n’est pas absolue.” Was φοιτήσασα intended? See LSJ, s.v. φοιτάω, I 3 (A. Chaniotis).
The stele is also mentioned in Hanfmann, Letters, p. 48, fig. 29; id., From Croesus to Constantine (1975), p. 59, fig. 121.
