named after the wealthy citizen who paid for them (and thus became
a kiistes): cp. EvapeaTeioi at Oinoanda CIG 4380 m, K.aXkimnave'ios at

Telmessos CIG 4198, and many others (e.g. LW 1209/, 1223,1257,
above no. 73). The custom was characteristic of Pisidia and Pamphylia,
and is rare in Phrygia proper: it has spread to Metropolis from Apollonia,
as the two towns were in easy communication *. The founder was often

Aur. Menneas is, in all probability, the founder of the Themis Men-
neane, mentioned in no. 694, 698. As he does not mention that the
Themis was second or third, we may infer that it was the first. Alex-
ander Tieiou, who won the Pankration at this first Themis, was therefore
the same as Alexander, son of Karikos, mentioned in no. 694. Tieiou then
is not a patronymic, but an indeclinable personal name (see p. 169 11. 1).

The letters are faint on the stone2, and I read on it only TICIOY
(understanding him as son of Tisias); but M. Waddington recognized
the correction needed by comparison with coins in his collection.
