Transliterations on Places on

[1] This is the base for a statue of the emperor Tiberius (r. 14-37 AD), which was erected at Eleusis by several members of that deme, who were probably family members. Theophilos, the only one whose name is preserved, also appears in dedications from the Asklepieion (IG II³ 4, 800-801). On Tiberius and Athens, see Agora XVIII 253 with notes. On commemoration of Roman emperors and their families at Eleusis, see I Eleusis 296 with notes; K. Clinton in M. C. Hoff and S. I. Rotroff, The Romanization of Athens, 1994, 161-82.
