Asia Minor, 1924.: III.—Monuments from Central Phrygia

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  24 September 2012

Extract

In July, 1924, we travelled from Afion-kara-hissar through the district of the Pentapolis to Dineir (Apameia), and thence to Chivril on the edge of the Eumeneian plain. After visiting most of the villages near Ishekli (Eumeneia) we went northward via Seljukler to join the railway at Ushak; the objects mentioned below were seen in the course of this journey.

A good example of a fourth-century underground tomb-chamber built of concrete (σύγκορουστον) with ‘stone slab covering the entrance at the eastern end of its vault’ and ‘corbel steps inserted in the east wall below the entrance,’ is described by Butler, Sardis, i, 1, p. 174, pl. V.

page 77 note 1 Another Cohors I Sugambrorum, distinguished by the title ‘tironum,’ is attested by a diploma of A.D. 78, found in Bulgaria (Année Épig. 1925, no. 67) but none of the evidence cited by Cichorius seems applicable to this regiment. I am indebted to Mr. H. M. Last for drawing my attention to this diploma.
