7. EUKARPIA. 693
goddess in her hellenized character leaning on her ancient xoanon1,
stood in her temple at Eukarpia2. This temple seems to have heen
rebuilt under M. Aurelius. Leave from the central government was
needed to undertake a work involving such expenditure, and was
obtained through the good offices of P. Claudius Max. Marcellianus3,
while C. Claudius Flaccus superintended the execution. Their services
are commemorated on coins (legends quoted p. 594).
A similar type occurs under Caracalla at Tiberiopolis, with some
variation in the dress and action of Artemis (who holds a torch in her
right hand, and leans her left arm on a small idol) 4. It is probable
that the Tiberiopolitan type is to be explained, not as an imitation of
coins of the distant Eukarpia, but as due to the existence of another
sculptural work of this common type in Tiberiopolis. It approxi-
mates more to the Venus type seen in a Pompeian statue °.
§ 8. Lykaones were a people of Central Phrygia in the conventus
of Synnada °, separated from the country of the Lycaonians proper by
the intervening cities belonging to the conventus of Philomelion7. In
the Notitiae the Lykaones come after Brouzos and Otrous and
before Stektorion8. We should therefore look for them near the
Pentapolis. They are mentioned in the Tekmorian lists as the Liner
Lykaonians9, We may understand that they were a fragment of the
same people that inhabited Lycaonia proper. This people was pro-
bably an older race in Asia Minor than the Phrygians (who came into
the country from Europe, probably about 900 b. c.) : the earlier popu-
lation was pushed before the immigrant Phrygians, who came from
N.W., partly into the remote plains of Lycaonia on S. E., partly into
the shelter of mountain fastnesses. Now any one who travels over
