ROMAN PERSONAL NAMES IN ARGOLIS
Epidauros; an altar (on another side of the same stone IG IV 2 1, 213 and 472) bearing an
honorary inscription for the person erected by the polis of Epidauros:
Ά πόλις ά τών Έπιδαυρίων Τ[ίτον] Ι Στατείλιον [Λ]αμπρία ύόν ΤειμοκράΙτη.άγωγοθετή-
σαντα [κ]αί γυμνασιαρχήΙ 4 σ[α]ντ[α έ]ν.Λυ[κ]είω κα[ί ίερα]πο[λή]σαντα Ι ετει ν κ' ν άριστα καί
δ[ικαιό]τατα [πά]Ι[σα]ς άρετάς ένεκε[ν καί εύνοιας] Ι [τάς εις αύτάν] (see also ARG 253 [2]
and adn. ARG 253 for the chronology).
[4] IG IV 1444; IG IV 2 1, 673 [before the enfranchisement of the family, i.e. before A.D. 35-44].
Epidauros, sanctuary; two stones of an exedra bearing an honorary inscription for the person
erected by the polis of Epidauros:
Ά πό[λ]ις τών Έπιδαυρίων Ι Τει[μ]οκράτην Λαμπρία, Ι ίερ[α]πολήσαντα δίς, Ι άγωνοθετή-
σαντα, Ι 5 άριστα πολειτευόμεΐνον (see also ARG 252 [8]).
Remarks: This individual is the last attested member of the prominent family of the Statuii; he
played an important role in the Panhellenion and was agonothetes of many games,
see A.J.S. Spawforth, ABSA 80, 1985, 257-258, according to whom the two terms of
his office as pyrphoros (see no. [1]) are dated to the forty-third and forty-fourth year,
respectively, of a local era. As a result, the inscription is not to be dated around A.D.
366-367, as Peek suggests, but in the second century A.D. According to A.J.S.
Spawforth, ABSA 80, 1985, 254 he was born in the decade A.D. 150-160; cf.
BullÉpigr 1973, 190.
For the date of [2]: on the basis of Peek 1972, 46, no. 87, which is dated in έτει κ'
(A.D. 143), and IG IV 2 1, 673, which refers to the person as ίεραπολήσαντα δίς,
Follet, Athènes, 131, n. 5 and 6 believes that the inscription is not to be dated before
A.D. 144/5.
According to B. Puech, "Grand-prêtres et helladarques d'Achaie", REA 85, 1983,29
the person was the last officer of the Koinon of Argeian origin; from now on begins
the significant role of Messene in the Achaean Koinon. The kings in question in 1.
24 of [2] are M. Aurelius and L. Verus (A.D. 161-169).
For the use of the name Memmianus and the mention of his heroic pedigree see
Spawforth, op. cit., 258. For the offices of [2] see also SEG 2, 1929,55, for the office
of helladarch see J. Oliver, "The helladarch", RSA 1978, 1-6 (esp. 2); J. Pouilloux,
