Stele of Opsiades and Polystrate, J. Paul Getty Museum 73.AA.116 (another view) ARISTÓTELES, THE SON OF OPSIADES AND POLYSTRATE In my article 'Two Attic Funerary Stelai in the J. Paul Getty Museum", Getty MJ. II, 1975, pp. 53-56, publishing the stele of Opsiades and Polystrate (ibidem, pp. 53-54, Fig. 1) I did not mention in the prosopographical commentary their son Aristóteles. It is interesting to note, that from the inscriptions recording the name of Aristóteles son of Opsiades of Oion, the family's wealth, obvious from the quality of a funerary monument like the one prepared for the grave of Polystrate, can now be connected with Attic silver mining. From IG II 2 1582, line 85, we learn that Aristóteles son of Opsiades of Oion, ca 342/1 BC, was the registrant of a mine located in the Attic déme of 41
Amphitrope. From line 92 of the same inscription, we learn that Aristóteles is at the same time one of the lessees of the mine. Further evidence for Aristóteles' active engagement in mining comes from the appearance of his name in another "mining inscription'' dating in the same decade as IG II 2 1582 (Hesperia XIX, 299: for date ibidem, p. 200). Despite the fact that neither Opsiades nor his son Aristóteles appears in the recently published "libro d'oro" of the wealthy ancient Athenians (J.K. Davies, Athenian Propertied Families 600-200 B.C., Oxford, 1971), there is no doubt in my mind that they belong to this group. One more mention of Aristóteles (or another son of Opsiades also engaged in mining) may be the one in another 'mining inscription* (Hesperia XIX, 261; No. 19, line 37) where the editor reads: [ ]adouç£|0î'ou One is tempted to make a restoration here based on the above inscriptions, to read as follows: [-- 'AçioTOTE'Arçç 'Oîfir] adoul| Ofou Adding the son of Opsiades II, Aristóteles, to the stemma of the family creates no problems, but makes its revision necessary. The revised stemma accompanying this 'addendum' differs from that of the previous note (p. 53, note 1) only in the entries for Opsiades II and Aristóteles, his son and the brother of Hierokleia. Al.
