[1] This is the upper part of the base for a statue of the emperor Claudius (r. 41-54 AD). No dedicator was ever named. On Claudius and Athens, see IG II² 3268 with notes. [2] Junia Megiste was priestess of Athena Polias from at least 38 AD until around 50 AD (S. G. Byrne, Roman Citizens of Athens, 2003, 330-31). The priestess of Athena Polias under Augustus, Megiste of Halai (IG II³ 4, 10; J. Blok and S. D. Lambert, ZPE 169, 2009 107 no. 13) might have been her maternal grandmother.
