[1] Fragment b of this list of names of the late-2nd century BC was among the inscriptions acquired in Athens by Lord Elgin (cf. AIUK 4.1, no. 2). It was recognised in 1990 as belonging to the same inscription as a fragment in the Epigraphical Museum, Athens. Fragment b was thought by E. L. Hicks in his 1874 edition of the Greek Inscriptions in the British Museum to be from a catalogue of ephebes, the young men of the city who underwent an official year of physical and academic training. While this remains possible, the fragments may well be rather from a different type of list, for example of contributors to a public project. For fragments of decrees in the British Museum relating to the ephebes see AIUK 4.2 no. 16 and AIUK 4.2 no. 17. For catalogues of ephebes from Roman Athens see AIUK 4.3B no. 2, 3, 4, 5. For more detailed discussion of the inscription see AIUK 4.3B, no. 1.
