ADDENDA. 343

quaestor, and legate, of Achaia, and a consular, is styled Oikistes of
Laodiceia and Hierapolis in an inscription (Benndorf Ly/cia I p. 67),
perhaps because he had aided them after an earthquake under Antoninus
Pius. It is not known that they suffered then, but in Sor. Hist. Aug.
Antonin. 9, 1 *, Asiae qppida may perhaps include them, as Benndorf sug-
gests j it is, however, quite possible that some benefit or gift given by
Telemachus procured him the title. It appears certain that the Asian
cities bestowed the title ' Founder' on the givers of certain benefactions
or the donors of public buildings (see Arch. Ep. Mitth. Oest. VII p. 171,
CIG 3495, Benndorf I. c.; above p. 246 n. 1).

6. P. 53 n. 3. Buresch Ath. Mitth. 1894 p.. 117 says, iiberhaupt ist
es (lurch CIG 3902 b, BCH 1886 p. 307, 1887 p. 355 (Eumeneia, Ala-
bauda, Lagina), Sfc, sicker, dass schon miter Augustus jede bedeutendere
Stadt in Asia ihr Kaisareion hatte (see Mommsen Rom. Gesch. V p. 32T,
Clerc de rebus Thyatir. pp. 68 f, 97 f).

7. P. 54 1. 25. Similarly Livia was identified with Hekate (and
probably her son Tiberius with Zeus Larasios) at Tralleis BCH 1886
p. 516 (see Buresch Ath. Mitth. J 894 p. 116).

8. P. 67 n. 2. At Stratonicea of Caria there were six archons for the
city every year, three for the summer semester, and three for the winter;
but the supreme board of magistrates seems to have consisted of four
sirategoi, three for the city and one for the country (of whom the three
changed every six months, and probably also the one country archon).

9. P. 76 n. 1. Drs. Hula and Szanto in their recent lleisebericht
p. 29 (published in Wiener Siizungsler. 1894) publish a short inscription
of this common class with an incorrect and incomplete restoration. It
should probably be read fxvfjfxa ixovofxa^wv [nal inronvrnxa Kvvqyeo-i&v t&v
bo6evTu>v] vtto HottXiov Owihiov ''k(n[apyov, vlov ktA. The editors restore
'Aai[aTiKov\; but there can be little doubt that the title Asiarch is re-
quired. The family of P. Vedius is known. An inscription of Ephesos
mentions a father and son named respectively M. KA. ITo. Oi?j8toy
'AvTcoveivos 2a/3eti>o? and lYl. KA.. IIo. Oi?;8tos ''Avraveivos ct>at8/)os 2a-
/3eiviavos (Swyrn. Mous. no. r^e') : these are in all probability the son
and grandson of P. Vedius, whose son was evidently born under An-
toninus Pius 138-61; the growing complexity of names in this noble
family is noteworthy. Cp. the tomb of the gladiators of a highpriest of
Temenothyrai BCH 1893 p. 265.' See p. 352.
