55 Porphyry, De Abstinentia II.28.I (ed. J. Bouffartigue and M. Patillon, Porphyre: De l'abstinence II (1979), 95). Brendel, op. cit. (note 41), III, suggests that it is this altar which is represented on the Corbridge Lanx by the altar bearing what looks like a piece of fruit that stands beside the trunk of the tree, between Artemis and Athena.
56 For Porphyry's dependence on Theophrastus, J. Bernays Theophrastos Schrift über Frömmigkeit (1866), esp. 32–5. De Abstinentia 11.27.2 records public human sacrifices ‘even now’ at the festivals on Mount Lycaeus in Arcadia and in honour of Saturn at Carthage, but by the late second century A.D. the ceremonies on Mount Lycaeus had become a private matter into which Pausanias preferred not to enquire (VIII.38.7) and the child sacrifices of Punic Carthage had long since been commuted to offerings of animals (T.D. Barnes, Tertullian (1971), 15–19).
