An honorific gnome of the koinon of the Phrikyladai: a new inscription from Liverpool
Liddel, Peter; Low, Polly
Abstract
This article publishes a new decree from the storerooms of Liverpool's World Museum. We provide a text and translation of the document, and discuss difficulties in reading the text as well as restorations where the stone is illegible. We offer an approximate dating of the document to the mid-third century, and suggest, on prosopographical and formulaic grounds, that it derives from Erythrae. We offer an interpretation of the status of the transaction (which describes itself as a gnome), the officials mentioned in the document, and the activities and nature of the Phrikyladai.
