6 λεττεῖκα: the inscription; λεκτεῖκα Pleket.
In the commentary on SEG 29, 1206, Pleket refers to evidence from Late Antiquity that “seems to show that the combination of ‘painter’ and ‘director of the fabrica’ is not unpalatable for the social historian”; for fabrica and ducenarius cf. no. 696, 2 comm. According to G. M. A. Hanfmann, AJA 1981, pp. 87–88, the ζωγράφος was a “painter-specialist capable of painting…parade armor” (cf. SEG 31, 1047); when Chrysanthios “painted his mausoleum, he exercised the same skill that he was using in the Imperial factory” (cf. SEG 29, 1206 comm.). According to Blanc, Chrysanthios “was a professional military painter charged with the decoration of the barracks of the Roman army at Sardis” (SEG).
