The inscriptions of the Argolid were first published
by M. Fränkel in IG IV (1902). The majority
of the inscriptions of Epidauros were republished in
an improved form by F. Hiller von Gaertringen in
IG TV 2 1 (1929). Many Epidaurian inscriptions were
restudied and republished, often with different readings
and additions, by W. Peek, "Inschriften aus dem
Asklepieion von Epidauros", Abh. de Sachs.
Akademie der Wiss. zu Leipzig 60.2 (1969) and
"Neue Inschriften aus Epidauros", Abh. de Sachs.
Akademie der Wiss. zu Leipzig 63.5, (1972). A few
new texts were brought to light in the course of the
work by the University of Athens, headed by
Professor V. Lamprinoudakis (V.K. Lamprinoudakis,
Ergon 1988 and Ergon 1990).
Numerous new inscriptions from Argos were
published or simply announced in the brief excavation
reports in the BCH at the beginning of the
twentieth century by W. Vollgraff (BCH 27, 1903;
33, 1909; MAI 14, 1951; Mnemosyne Al, 1919; 58,
1930) and after the Second World War with the initiation
of systematic excavation (1952) by members
of the French mission: P. Aupert, BCH 106, 1982;

The basic publication for Elis is W.
Dittenberger-K. Purgold, Die Inschriften von
Olympia, Olympia V (Berlin 1896), based on the
transcriptions made by K. Purgold. More recent
inscriptions from Olympia have been published in

the Olympiaberichte of Jdl and in Nikephoros,
where all new texts emerging from the excavations
at Olympia are reported. The significantly fewer
texts known to us from the city of Elis have been
published primarily by R. Fleischer, "Epigraphisches
aus Elis", JÖAI43,1961-63 Beiblatt 1965 and in the
chronicles of Archaiologikon Deltion. These are
mainly chance finds or the product of limited rescue
excavation. Inscriptions known from the rest of the
region of Elis derive from reports in Archaiologikon
Deltion and from the articles of Te Riele (see bibliography.

11. The formula for Roman personal names is
defined by the tria or duo nomina with the filiation
and indication of tribe, which are added to the cognomen
from the end of the republican period.
Perigrini who acquired Roman citizenship or slaves
who were freed usually kept as their cognomen their
old idionym, which did not necessarily reveal their
ethnic origin; cf. R. Sailer, "The family and society",
in: J. Bodel (ed.), Epigraphic evidence. Ancient history
from inscriptions (London-New York 2001),
107-111, for discussion of this issue with full bibliography.
By contrast, the Greek tradition is simpler
and is defined, at least from the archaic period, only
by an idionym and a patronym or metronym. This
two-part formula could in some instances be made
more specific by the addition of a son's name, a tactic
found at first in epigrams written in a bombastic
style. In large cities the demoticon was added to the
two-part formula, and the ethnicon appears beyond
the city boundaries: cf. Ο. Masson, Onomastica
graeca selecta I (Paris 1990) : Introduction I-VIII.
12. The formulation is that of CI. Nicolet,
"L'onomastique des groupes dirigeants sous la
République", in: L'onomastique latine, 47; cf. Ch.
Müller, Topoi4, 1994, 413.
