Extract

Seven inscriptions have been classified as recognition decrees for the Delphian Soteria. One of these is so fragmentary as to defy analysis. In a second, only the end of the decree survives, and relatively little can be learned from it. The other five decrees have been the subject of considerable disagreement since Pomtow's publication in 1914.
