In the inscription quoted in the ' Corpus Inscriptionum
^rascarum' under No. 3604, which is admitted to belong
to the time of Augustus Octavianus, Hipparchus is men-
tioned as a member of the Ilian Council, and as on line 13
the same name occurs with the same attribute, I do not
sitate to maintain that the above inscription belongs to
the same period.
