ROMAN PELOPONNESE I<br />

172. ΤΙΒ(ΕΡΙΟΣ) ΚΑ(ΑΥΑΙΟΣ) ΦΑ[- - -]<br />

Corinth Vili. 3, 492, pi. 39 [lst/2nd e A.D.].<br />

Corinth, forum; fragment of white marble; mutilated inscription the character of which is<br />

uncertain.<br />

173. TI(BERIUS) ÇLL4UDIUS HER]MOX[E]NUS<br />

Corinth VIII. 3, 184, pi. 16 [2nd part of the 1st c. A.D.].<br />

Corinth; five fragments of a block of gray marble streaked with white; inscription in his honour<br />

erected by someone whose name is missing; only the beginning of his career is preserved:<br />

Ti. Claudio I [Her]mox[e]no I [p]raef. I [—] I IIvi[ralibus orna]men[tis honorato].<br />

Remarks: J. H. Kent, Corinth, loc. cit., notes that the only cognomen that fits the space is<br />

Hermoxenus, as [Da]moxenus or [Ti]moxenus are too short; cf. Έρμοξένα<br />

recorded in Argos (LGPN III. A, 154) and Έρμόξενος in Samos (LGPN I. 166).<br />

*174. ΤΙΒ(ΕΡΙΟΣ) ΚΑΑΥΑΙΟΣ ΗΡΩΑΗΣ ΑΤΤΙΚΟΣ<br />

[1] A. Philadelpheus, AD 1919, Parartema, 38-40; id. BCH, 44, 1920, 170-180, ph. (AnnÉpigr<br />

1922, 31; SEG2, 1924, 52); "Corinth VIII.l, 85; Corinth IX, 88, no. 169 [2nd c. A.D.].<br />

Corinth; herm of white marble with his portrait head which was presumably set up in some<br />

garden in the environs of the city after his death in A.D. 177 or 178: Ηρώδης Ι ένθάδε Ι περιε-<br />

πάτει (Herodes used to walk here).<br />

[2] Corinth I. 3, 69, adn. 49, pi. 26, 2 (SEG 13, 1956, 226); J. Bousquet, BCH 88, 1964, 609-<br />

613, with commentary; cf. SEG 22, 1967, 216; BullÉpigr 1966, 186; new edition in "Corinth<br />

VIII. 3, 128,1. 3, pi. 12; cf. BullÉpigr 1966; SEG 23, 1968, 171 [A.D. 143-160].<br />

Corinth, forum: Temple of Tyche; marble base; epigram in honour of his wife Τήγιλλα (COR<br />

477); here: [Άττικ]ος Ηρώδης.<br />

[3] Corinth VIII. 3, 129, pis 13, 62 [2nd c. A.D.].<br />

Corinth, forum; two pieces of a blue marble block; mutilated inscription containing the last<br />

three lines of an epigram in elegiac couplets in his honour; his name is missing.<br />

[4] Ch. Kritzas, "Πετρί Νεμέας", 398-413, in particular 400, epigram B, 1. 9 (AnnÉpigr 1992,<br />

1549) [end of the 2nd/beginning of the 3rd c. A.D.].<br />

Corinthia, Nemea (Petri); sandstone slab recording an epigram in honour of the family of Φλα-<br />

βιανός (I) (COR 261) and Σαλβία (COR 493); here: Ηρώδης.<br />

Remarks: The well known orator and senator. Although his name is completely missing in [3]<br />

(only the title ανθυπάτου in 1. 3 is preserved on the stone), the similarity of this<br />

text with the epigram [2] in honour of his wife Regula makes certain that the<br />

inscription refers to him (L. Robert, REG 79, 1966, 742-143=id., OMS VI [1989]<br />

560-561). In [4] his name appears in the context of a comparison between his<br />

glory and that of an Αριστομένης, a sixth-generation descendant of Φλαβιανός (I)<br />
