704 XVI. THE PENTAPOLIS OF PHRYGIA.

Mvtcls no. 294^ 78). The names are here restored differently (and
I think much better) than in my first publication BCH 1882 p. 517.

The people of Stektorion were not well acquainted with Latin : they
should have written Nenae and Trib. Pot. Cos. Ill P. P. The Turbe is
an old building: the lower part of it consists entirely of ancient cut and
dressed stones (not in their original place): and there is therefore more
chance that the inscribed stone has come from the site near Mentesh
(pp. 689, 698).

The procurator rationis (orjisci) castrensis has provoked much discussion.
Prof. O. Hirschfeld3 considers that he was an official of the Imperial
household, managing the expenditure required for the upkeep of the
domus (conceived as castra, cp. Juv. IV 134). But Mommsen4 points
out that the Emperor was not in castra while he was residing in his
domus in Rome; as soon as he left Rome, his residence (even in Albanum
Juv. 1. c.) was castra or praetorium; hence Mommsen thinks that the
proc. castr. managed the Imperial vestis castrensis (I 417 note 4) and
entire travelling equipment. This office was regularly held by an
Imperial freedman, and was one of the highest positions open to him.
Freedmen rarely became procurators of provinces; but Crescens after
becoming procurator castrensis was promoted to the procuratorship first of
