One of the few inscribed stones which still remain on the hilly site of Pisidian Antioch is a large and impressive block, 0·564 m. by 1·091 m. by 0·475 m., with an inscription cut in elegant letters into the face which now lies uppermost. This stone has probably been moved only a few yards from its original position, for otherwise it would have been taken to the neighbouring town of Yalvaç for building purposes. Such a stone, perhaps originally the basis of a statue, would have been set up in a prominent place in the colony, probably in or near the main square, the Tiberia Platea, and its present position is not far from that square. It is surprising that so fresh-looking a stone should have escaped the notice both of the inhabitants of Yalvaç, and, apparently, of epigraphists. It has, however, been somewhat defaced, and the hole in the centre of the inscription indicates that it has been used for something other than its original purpose: see Plate XXXV(b).
1 For help in the restoration of this stone I am much indebted to the kindness of Professor R. Syme.

6 ILS. 5676. PIR. is undoubtedly right in identifying the Ser. Cornelii Dolabellae of ILS. 1049 and 5676, rather than regarding them as brothers (so Mommsen) or as father and son (so Klebs).

10 The cognomen is restored exempli gratia; the name is a common one and the number of letters missing is certainly five.
