are assumed to have been on the south-western side of the city, where they are shown,
adjoining a hill of Zeus "Ti/'turos, in the map given by Frazer Pausanias v. 32.

(3) At Corinth three statues of Zeus stood in the open air. One of them had no
special title ; the second was 'Kdbvios; the third, "TxpLaros (Paus. 2. 2. 8 rd be rod Aids, /cat

that -the nameless Zeus was 'ohne Zweifel ein...Zenoposeidon,' or in conjecturing with
P. Odelberg Sacra Corinthia, Sicyonia, Phliasia Upsala 1896 p. 7 that he was a Zeus
evdXios. Such a god would surely have had a distinctive appellation. See, however,
Gruppe Gr. Myth. Rel. p. 1094 n. 27, supra p. 582 ff.

(4) At Argos Smyrna, the wife of Maenius Apollonius and apparently priestess of
Zeus, in an interesting epitaph describes her tomb as a barrow adjoining the sanctuary of
Zeus "Tif/10-Tos (Inscr. Gr. Pelop. i no. 620, 4 = Cougny Anth. Pal. Append. 2. 286. 8

(5) At Olympia Zeus "Tficrros had a couple of altars on the way to the Hippodrome

(6) In Skiathos is a marble slab inscribed with a dedication [Att '1~\tp'iarw Kai rrj

(7) At Hephaistia in Lemnos is a round altar of white marble inscribed in lettering of

(8) In Imbros was a slab of white marble, broken at the right side, with the inscrip-

(9) Makedonia has furnished dedications from Aigai (L. Duchesne—C. Bayet Mimoire

Zeus "Tt/'toros, cited by P. Perdrizet in the Bull. Corr. Hell. 1898 xxii. 347 n. 2).

(10) In Thrace we have inscriptions from Anchialos (C. Jirecek in the Arch.-ep. Mitth.

(ir) Moesia. An altar of reddish limestone, found among Roman remains between
the villages of Selenigrad and Miloslavci, and now in the Museum at Sofia, is inscribed
