page 75 note 1 Nos. 1–4 were found by Mr. De Rustafell in 1901. The remainder were collected by Mr. Henderson and myself while engaged on the survey in the summer of 1902. Nos. 1, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34 are from impressions. The photographs I owe to Mr. Henderson.

page 80 note 2 The tree, which figures largely in Cyzieus stelae (cf. e.g. No. 38, 39 below) is interesting in connection with the Life of Philetaerus, S.

page 85 note 4 The second names are very frequently added at Cyzicus; after ὁβ′ they are evidently for distinction between father and son, cf. Ξϵνάρχου, Ἀσκληπιάδου β′, Ath. Mitth. vi.

Mitth. vi. 42 (1), Πϵριγένησ ὁ καὶ Σκοπάνης, Εὐτυχίων β′ Μαμουγές, ib. xxvi. 121, the second name is barbarous, and in C.I.G. 3705 (Apollonia ad Rh.) we have the Greek and Roman names, Ἑρμᾶς ὁ καὶ Μϵρκούριος

page 90 note 5 Why is Asclepiades called οἰκιστής? Can he have founded an Asclepiad colony at Poemanenon, where stood a ‘holy and famous’ shrine of Asclepius in Aristides' day (I. 502, Dind.)? It is curious that another Asclepiad honorary inscription comes also from Manyas, (Rev. Arch. 34 Google Scholar, 1877, 102, (4) Hamilton 318) which has been frequently identified with Poemanenon; but cf. Journ. Roy. Geog. Soc. 1897, p. 160.
