Transliterations on Places on

[1] This is a dedication of the prytany of Akamantis, which had won the competition for the best prytany in its year in office, cf. IG I³ 515, with notes. This one will originally have been set up in the tribal sanctuary of Akamantis, the location of which is uncertain, cf. U. Kron, Die zehn attischen Phylenheroen (1976), 146-47; N. F. Jones, Hesp. 64, 1995, 509-10. [2] Or possibly, "the Council [and People]", cf. IG II³ 4, 26, l. 61.
