89-94 ROMAN PELOPONNESE I<br />

89. DIGNA<br />

I. Papapostolou, AD 33, 1978, Chron. 95, pi. 32 B; *Rizakis, Achaïe II, no. 185 [3rd/4th c. A.D.].<br />

Patrai; a marble stele bearing the epitaph of Digna:<br />

Memoria I Dignae I vix(it) a(nnis) III.<br />

Remarks: The name is used as a cognomen and later as a Christian proper name.<br />

90. L(UCIUS) (DOIUS)<br />

f. M(arcus) Doius L(ucii) f(ilius) Quir(ina) Balbus (for the text see ACH 91)<br />

91. M(ARCUS) DOIUS L(UCII) F(ILIUS) QUIR(INA) BALBUS<br />

CIL III 512; *Rizakis, Achaïe II, no. 125 [end 1st c. B.C./beginning 1st c. A.D.].<br />

Patrai; a grave stone, now lost, erected by L. Durcatius Eros (ACH 98):<br />

M(arco) Doio L(ucii) f(ilio) Qui(rina) I Balbo, dec(urioni), arbitr(atu) I L(uci) Durcati Erotis.<br />

decurio<br />

Remarks: The name Doius is rare (Schulze, 90; Mócsy, Nomenclator, s.v.). In the eastern<br />

provinces it is also attested in Crete (K.J. Rigsby, "Cnossus and Capua", TAPhA<br />

106, 1976, 323-4; M.W. Baldwin Bowsky, "Knossos and Campania. The critical<br />

connection", in: Preacti XI Congresso Intemazionale di Epigrafia Greca e Latina,<br />

Roma 18-24 settembre 1997, 483 n. 49).<br />

92. P(UBLIUS) (DOMITIUS)<br />

f. [P(ublius) Do]mitius P(ublii) f(ilius) [T]ro(mentina) Oriculo (ACH 93)<br />

Rizakis, Achaïe II, no. 152 [end 1st e. B.C./lst e. A.D.].<br />

Patrai; a fragmentary limestone stele bearing the funerary inscription of the person who was a<br />

veteran of legio XII:<br />

[P. Do]mitius P. f. I [T]ro(mentina) Oriculo I leg(ionis) vac. XII.<br />

veteran of leg(io) XII<br />

Remarks: Oriculo could be a cognomen, but frequently in the inscriptions of this period<br />

cognomina are omitted; it could be also the name of the city of Domitius, although<br />

the citizens of this town were classified to the tribe Palatina, Arnensis or Galeria (see<br />

Rizakis, loc. cit.,).<br />

94. ΔΟΜΙΤΙΟΣ ΦΑΙΔΡΟΣ<br />

Kaibel, Epigr. Graeca, 481; Peek, Vers-Inschriften I, no. 1526; *Rizakis, Achaïe II, no. 144<br />
