NOTE.
The second and third volumes of the Papers of the American
School of Classical Studies at Athens have been devoted to the
publication of the results of Dr. Sterrett's two journeys in Asia
Minor, made in the summers of 1884 and 1885. The third volume,
which was published in March, 1888, contains the report of the
Wolfe Expedition, made in 1885. The present volume is devoted
to the journey of 1884.
The Committee of Publication wish it to be distinctly imderstood,
that for obvious reasons, which they trust will commend themselves
to all, they have undertaken no editorial supervision of these volumes,
and that Dr. Sterrett is solely responsible for all that appears in
them under his name, as regards both the substance and the
form.

PREFACE.
The expenses of the journey in Asia Minor, the results of which
are contained in this volume, were borne by myself, with the excep-
tion of one hundred and fifty dollars, which were contributed by
gentlemen in Boston.
The inscriptions in whose headings no reference is made to a
previous publication are new. Those in whose headings reference
is made to some publication have been pubUshed before, but with
inaccuracies.
The square brackets[ ] mean that what is inclosed between them
was originally on the stone, but having become defaced has been
supplied by me. The round brackets( ) mean that what is inclosed
between them was never on the stone, i.e. either that the word
was abbreviated on the stone and has been written out in fiill, or
else that an error of the stonecutter has been corrected by me.
The broken brackets () mean that what is inclosed between them
is on the stone, but that it is redundant.
The following Turkish terms need explanation :—
Ak, white.
Ashagha, lower.
Aghatch, a Tree.
Bash, a Head.
Bel, a Pass, generally low and broad
see Gedik.
Bunar, a living Spring ; see Pufiar.
Bog/iaz, literally a Throat, applied
to defiles that lead up to a Pass
{Bel or Gedik).
Boyiik, large, big.
Dagh, a Mountain.

I desire to tender again to Professor Heinrich Kiepert, of the
University of Berlin, my most hearty thanks for the cartographical
construction of my routes from observations and measm^ements made
by me in the field.
The first part of my road-notes were turned over to Professor
W. M. Ramsay, according to our agreement, by which the geo-
graphical results of that part of the journey during which we worked
together were to belong to him, and the epigraphical results to me.
Accordingly, my routes begin at Isparta, the point where I ceased
to give my road-notes to Mr. Ramsay.

PREFACE. Vll
The routes made on the journey from Isparta to Ak Serai are
laid down on the large map which accompanies the JVo^e Expedition
to Asia Minor. The routes made on the journey from Ak Serai to
the Euphrates, and from the Euphrates to Angora, are given in the
two maps which accompany the present volume.
In editing this volume I have had suggestions from W. M. Ram-
say, F. D. Allen, Th. Mommsen, B. Pick, and my lamented friend,
J.McKeen LewiSi,

AN
EPIGRAPHICAL JOURNEY IN ASIA MINOR.
aiOic
In the fall of 1883 I was in Smyrna, having just returned from my
summer's work with W. M. Ramsay, Esq., in Phrygia. I was making
preparations to return to the interior on a journey of my own, when
I received a telegram from Professor L. R. Packard, then Director
of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens, requesting me
to come to Athens immediately in order to assist him in the School.
I went to Athens at his call, but with the determination to indemnify
myself for the journey I had to abandon by undertaking a more
extended tour at my own expense during the summer of 1884.
Fortunately I was able to carry out my plans, and this present volume
embodies the results of that journey. Mr. Ramsay had also made
arrangements for spending this summer of 1884 in archaeological
research in Asia Minor, and it seemed expedient for us to work in
concert as long as the general plan of our journeys would allow, for
thus a greater extent of country could be explored systematically.
In pursuance then of our agreement we met in Smyrna on May
15th, 1884, where I provided myself with the necessary travelling
outfit. I then went to Aidin Giuzel Hissar, the ancient Tralleis, to
buy horses and make other final arrangements.
Mr. Ramsay, who was to be accompanied by A. H. Smith, Esq.,
of Cambridge, England, was detained in Smyrna, and in the mean-
time I undertook an excursion in the direction of Nazli, during which
I copied the first four inscriptions.

1 Ligatures occur: line 2, MH ; line 3, HN bis; 4, HNK; 5, NE ; 8, HN. In
line 2 the between T and N is small, as is also line 10 the Q between I and N.
In line 10 there was probably a horizontal bar connecting I and L ; in other
words, the two letters were H C in ligature, but this is conjecture, as I failed to see
such a connecting bar, and my copy has I C as given above.

This inscription is a replica of one found in 1866 in the theatre of
Tralleis, and published by \\'addington from a copy of Salvetti. The
first two lines have been restored from the inscription of Tralleis
[Le Bas-Waddington, Voyage Archeologique, 1652 /J].

The reading of line i is certain. Mr. Waddington (loc. cit.) con-
jectures AAKIBIAAHN, and identifies him with the person men-
tioned C.I.G. 2947, 2948. The name 'AX/cittoXt/s is certainly strange,
but still not more so than many others that occur on Asiatic soil.
No. 4.
At a fountain by the roadside one hour west of Kiosk. It is
a long rectangular stone, with a fragmentary inscription in
two columns. The left end of the stone is broken away,
and with it the cotn'meiu:e7nent of the lijies of the inscription
forming Column I. The letters of this inscriptioii are larger
than those of its mate in Column II., which has been much
worn away by the action of water. Cf.Le Bas-Wadding-

This inscription is a fragment of a letter of one of the later kings,
possibly Antiochus the Great, in regard to the people of Hiera Komeand the sanctuary of Apollo.
At Kuyudjak I met Messrs. Ramsay and Smith. From this point
our final start was made, going by way of Antiochia to Aphrodisias,
the modem Geira.
Antiochia has disappeared entirely, it seems, and from the villages
of this region we collected only a few insignificant inscriptions.

A large number of inscriptions from Geira (Aphrodisias) have
been published already, and consequently we could not hope for
great epigraphical gain unless we should spend a number of days
among the ruins, in order to sift the new from the old, the unknown
from the known inscriptions. But time pressed, and we reluctantly
abandoned the plan of investigating the site carefully. Still our visit
was not wholly without fruit.

The name Zwo-as occurs C.I.G. 3665, but neither is this form or
the form SwcrSs,— aros common in Greek onomatology (see Revue
Archeologique, 1878, XXXVI. p. 318, and Letronne, Inscriptions
Grecques et Ro7naines de fEgypte, 11. p. 457.
Possibly the ZGh%.kl\\ of our inscription maybe a mistake for
ZQ^ATI or Z6^$AAH. The form Swo-aSr^s occurs in an inscription
of Athens in <E>iX6o-T<op III. p. 568. ^
May 29. Geira to Makuf, 4 h. 40 m. The plateau upon which
Aphrodisias was situated contracts gradually as one advances, until it
strikes the foot of a spur of Baba Dagh immediately beyond Besh
Kavaklar. We cross this spur of Baba Dagh, and in 2 h. 15 m. from
Besh Kavaklar we reach its foot in the Davas Ova. Traversing the
plain we reach Kara Hissar in 35 m.

level with the ground, while in others they are still erect. The walls
have been destroyed and then rebuilt, as is clear from the archi-
tectural fragments, and even inscribed stones which are built into the
present wall. But that the foundations of the wall date from a com-
paratively early period is shown by the fact that on the outside the
wall is provided with finely executed stone shoots at the bottom to
carry the water off. Still, it must be noted that, at a place where the
wall is now used as a quarry by the villagers of Makuf, I discovered
an honorary inscription (No. 15) in the very foundation. The walls
were evidently rebuilt in time of great and pressing need, when the
anxious citizens made use of anything in the shape of stone that came

Descent is very rarely reckoned ixi^p6$ev. It may be doubted
whether it be the case here or not. At any rate we know from
No. 15 that women held ofifice in Heraclea, and it may be that
Melitine was one of these distinguished women from whom it was
an honor to reckon descent. It seems improbable that the town
Melitene in Eastern Cappadocia is referred to in this inscription.

The above inscriptions are published (badly) in the Bulletin de
Correspondance Hellenique, 1886, p. 519, as coming from Acharkieui
near Tralleis.
May 30. Makuf to Davas, 4,h. 30 m. From Heraclea I journeyed
to the southeast and south through the plain now known as Davas
Ova, passing Tilkilly and Karakieui, and made as good a survey of
the district as I could. I visited Tabae, now Davas, but found no
inscriptions, and but few traces of an antiquity other than Turkish.
Tabae is situated on a high hill in a gorge between two mountains,
and is surrounded by cations three or four hundred feet deep on all
sides except one. On this one side it is approached by a bridge,
which crosses a chasm where it is least deep ; after the bridge is
crossed a narrow neck of land, just wide enough for a roomy road,
leads by a tortuous and laborious ascent to the town on the hill.
When seen from any point in the plain, Davas seems to be situated
on a neck or saddle of the mountains, and one is extremely surprised
at the real topography of the place.
May31. Davas to Medet,
4h.
45m. The plain of Tabae is one
of extraordinary fertility ; in antiquity it supported three cities,
Heraclea, Tabae, and a third at Medet, to which Messrs. Paris and
Holleaux give the name of ApoUonia (see Bulletin de Correspondance
Hellenique, 1885, p. 342 sqq.). The inscriptions published by these
gentlemen (^Bulletin de Correspondance Hellenique, 1885, p. 344
sqq.) were copied by me also (see my Preliminary Report, p. 6).
That ApoUonia was a town of considerable importance and wealth
is clear from a very substantial antique substructure in huge hewn
stones of blue limestone. Upon these foundations there now stands
the Mosque, which has without doubt superseded a prouder structure
in honor of a pagan god. The neighboring hill, which certainly
served as the Acropolis, contains no traces of antiquity, except the
many architectural fragments of great weight and size which are
found in the cemetery.

the stroke below the ^8, making it 4000, inasmuch as 8' (4) seems too
small.

The inscription dates from the year 55 B.C., which corresponds
with the year 29 of the era of Sulla, or 52 a.d., which corresponds
with the year 29 of the era of Cibyra.
From Kizildje we return to the neighborhood of Medet, and thence
to Kizildje Beilik, the time occupied between Kizildje and Kizildje
Beilik being 3 h. 43 m.
June 2. Kizildje Beilik to Kizil Hissar, 5 h. 43 m. We follow
up the Harpasus River, and in 4 h. 9 m. the watershed is reached in
the neighborhood of Sarai Ova. A descent of 20 m. brings us to the
extreme northwestern corner of the Karayuk Bazar Ova. From this
point there is a gentle descent until within a short distance of Kizil
Hissar, which is situated at the western edge of the plain on the
slopes of the mountain. The distance from the watershed near Sarai
Ova to Kizil Hissar is i h. 34 m. I was detained a day at Kizil
Hissar, waiting for Messrs. Ramsay and Smith, who found it impossible
to be punctual.
June 4. Kizil Hissar, via Yiireghil, Yataghan, Kuyudjak, Kaibazar,
Avshar, to Giiine, 6 h. 34 m. One hour's travel brings us to the
easternmost limit of the plain. Henceforward the country is rolling,
the above-mentioned villages lying in narrow valleys, each with a
little stream of water. Kaibazar is a large and prosperous village.
Giiine is situated at the northern edge of a little valley, that is hemmed
in on all sides by mountains, except that the water finds an exit
through a narrow gorge to the west.
June 5. Giiine, 7'ia Dodru Agha, Yazir, Giimiish, Gumavshar, to
Tchamkieui, 6 h. 33 m. Leaving Giiine we traverse the litde valley
mentioned above, and cross a mountain ridge to a narrow valley
which leads west to Derekieui. Here are the ruins of an ancient
town. We continue to head nearly southeast, crossing a mountain

In C./.G. 4380 r and s Franz gets rid of TYXOITON very
unmethodically in two different ways. It is probably Pisidian Syntax
for Tvxpuv (see Kiihner, Ausfiihrliche Grammatik, II, p. 18). At
the date of this inscription the Dual was obsolete. " If any one
violates the tomb, let them suffer for it at the hands of the Gods."
The two inscriptions which follow present two more examples of
Tu^otTov, whatever it is.

About midway between Dodru Agha, on and around a small hill,
there are sarcophagi and other traces of an ancient town. In the
mosque of Yazir there are many ancient stones ; sarcophagi are
abundant, and I noticed the capital of a column belonging to the
Christian period.
From Dodru Agha to Tchamkieui the time is three hours. Leaving
Giimavshar we cross a low brushy barren hill to Tchamkieui. HereI met Messrs. Ramsay and Smith, who have explored the Karayuk
Bazar Ova. During our separation of two days they had found the
following six inscriptions.

June 6. Tchamkieui to Derekieui, 2 h. 54 m. We retrace our
steps to the neighborhood of Gtimavshar, and thence to Derekieui,
passing around a high mountain on our right. At Yaghmur Tash
(= stone rain) the plain is strewn with many huge bowlders, having
been precipitated down from the almost perpendicular heights. The
plain here really looks as though it had rained stones. Half an hour
north of Derekieui in the plain there are substantial foundations,
possibly of a temple. On the top of the mountain immediately east
of Derekieui the villagers report a Kale and inscriptions, but having
promised to meet Messrs. Ramsay and Smith at a fixed time, it was
not possible for me to investigate the site.
June 7. Derekieui to Karamanlii, 8 h. 36 m. Leaving Derekieui
we went up the narrow valley and passed the ruins mentioned on
June 5. Thence we recross the mountain ridge to Dodru Agha.
Leaving Dodru Agha, 3;^ m, travel east over a rough country brings
us to the foot of the high, rugged, and in places almost impassable
Eshler Dagh. After a climb of 3 h. 50 m. the final summit of the
mountain is reached. A descent of i h. 39 m. brings us to the foot
of the Eshler Dagh, at the westernmost limit of the plain of Kara-
manlU. Thence, passing Gultchan, we reach Karamanlii in i h. 26 m.
Nos. 38-40.
Karamanlii. Quadrangular cippus at the fountain west of
the village. Height, 1.45 m.; high between the mouldings,
1.05 m. ; width, 0.50 m. Bulletin de Correspondance:

1878, p. 250. Impression}
1 Lines 1-2 are on the top moulding. The I at the end of line 3 is very small.
The letters to the right of the uncial text belong to this inscription as indicated,
but are on the side of the stone immediately to the right of A (see Bulletin de
Correspondance Helleniqiie, 1878, p. 251, lines 12-14). In line 23, MO in ligature
probably stands for MOYNAIUJN.

serious blunder of the engraver. In line 9 end, TTPA is certain, not TTPOA. In
line II an omega is written upside down. In line 12, TPCC for TPIC. In line 19
there is certainly but one C where there should be two. In line 22. TYAPAHON
is distinct and certain, possibly an error for something like TYAPAI UUN. It is a
native name.

Line 3. I lay no stress on the conjecture of Ovyarpo^ ; but if it be
possible, it helps out of a difficulty. Ou/a/ht/Smis is miswritten for
Ov/xfiL^ias. The meaning of lines 14-17 is that the money shall be

June 8. Karamanlii to Tefeny, i h. 3 m. At Tefeny I again met
Messrs. Ramsay and Smith. Here we copied the following inscriptions.

Tefeny. Quadrangular cippiis in the cemetery. Height, 1.^8 m.;
witJiin mouldings, 1.20 m.; -width, 0.41 m. Bulletin de
Correspondance Hellenique, 1878, /. 56^; C.I.G. 4366 «/.
The inscriptions are so badly blurred by the gradual wearing
away of the stone that impressions would be worthless. The
reader will have to accept the texts on the united testimony
of Mr. Ramsay and myself.

I. 5. The letters BOYZ. seem to invalidate the reading of the
Bulletin, Pov\\.iTai irpa^iv (rjoi. The reading KaraOvfjuos is not certain.
II. 3. The sense seems to be for dAA'] apa fieivov in preference
to ov8'] apa fxelvov of the Bulletin,
4. The reading dSta/AT^xavov is reasonably certain. Ata/xrjxaLvdofiai
means fo bring about, to contrive. The Fates advise him, who has
just consulted the oracle, to abstain from the matter he may have in
mind, because among other things it is difficult to contrive and
execute it.
5. v\tto Brjfiov is almost perfectly certain.
III. 3. £ts Se^to.

IV. 2. [^]ciTT/s is certain, so that the remarks in the Bulletin, loc.

V. 3. Trpaty's cannot be disputed, for although the tt is slightly
blurred on the impression, still the letter is certain.
4. Kariyplva-L <Te\ seems more probable than KaTexo[vcrt ye].
VI. 3. Xrifi]\l/ri8' a OiXu-i must be read instead of v^rjXa OiKw;.
VIII. 3. 8pao-c is given by the Bulletin conjecturally. The A is
not certain on the impression, but our copy gives the letter as certain
(see Bulletin, p. 507, V.).
4. ivx^LpcL, imperative verb, must be read instead of ivx^'-P^'-'

3. [dva(r]w[cr]ai seems to be demanded by the existing letters.

a small I is inserted above and between the 6 and C. In line 5, the H of NHC is
written above the C. In line 6, the reading CUJTHPI AC is certain, the stone-
cutter having made an M by mistake instead of H. At the close of line 7, a A
has been incised below the H ; it can only belong to the name of the people, which
in this instance must have two A A's.

mistake of the stonecutter, see No. 53 C, line 42. If not, we might

to insert an I before initial ^, e.g. the Turkish Ismir [= Smyrna],

On the left side we could make out nothing whatever, and the
copy as given in the Bulletin de Correspondance Hellenique, 1878,
p. 171, gave us no help, for here as elsewhere in this district the
copies of the Bulletin were constantly before us. Whereas we found
the inscription on the left side of the seat illegible, but that on the
back easy, the French gentlemen give a copy of the former and find
the latter hopeless.

A.
There can hardly be any doubt that the writer in the Bulletin ds
Correspondance Hellenique is right in considering that the era em-
ployed in this inscription and in others of this district is the Cibyratic,
which has been fixed by M. Waddington (Le Bas-Waddington, Voyage
Archeologique, 12 13) to October, 25 a.d., not 25 b.c, as the writer in
the Bulletin de Correspondance Hellenique (1878, p. 171 top) implies
in his calculation.
Accordingly the dates given in this inscription, 236 and 237 (lines
I and 4), correspond to the years 261 and 262 a.d.
Line 6. ^cAtws apparently stands for dcAcws, willirigly.
B.
" Apollonios, acting as priest of Men Mesanbrios, dedicates in dis-
charge of a vow to Men of the Toleseis."
Two different gods Men are distinguished here ; obviously they
are the deities of two separate villages, one perhaps named Mesam-
bria, and the other Tolesia (or possibly Todesia)

Concerning 0eos Sw^wv, or simply Sw^wv, see Bulletin de Corre-
spondance Hellefiique, 1878, p. 171, No. 2 ; 172, No. 4, but especially
1880, p. 291 sq., where M. Collignon rejects the supposition that
Sw^tov represents death in the shape of a horseman, and thinks that
the stones bearing reliefs of a horseman (along with inscriptions) are
merely votive offerings dedicated to a God. It is noteworthy that
©fo? Stu^wv is mentioned on coins of Themissonion, a fact which tells
strongly in favor of the close relation between this district and that
in which Cibyra and Themissonion are situated.

At Kaldjik I bade a final farewell to Messrs. Ramsay and Smith.
The general plan of my journey made it impossible for me to work
longer in concert with them.
June 12. Kaldjik, via Bademli, Mussalar, Einesh, to Hadjilar,
5 h. 30 m. We traverse an open, rolling country along the north-
western edge of the valley of the Gebren Tchai, a district blank on
the old map, but which contains a number of villages.

Nearly one hour east of Einesh is the site of an ancient town, nowwholly deserted. The remains are not unworthy of notice. Among
other things may be mentioned the tombs, most of which are round
buildings, with massive stone foundations. These were probably
ii^Spai or i/'aXiSc?. I have met with them also at Isaura Vetus and
at Anabura (cf. Papers of the American School, Vol. III. No. 187
and p. 203 ; also Nos. 339-342. Mr. Ramsay identifies this site with
" Palaiopolis, or Alieros, the latter being the native name " (cf.

I20 AN EPIGRAPHICAL JOURNEY•
June 15. Isparta to Egherdir, 5 h. 29 m. Leaving Isparta we
traverse the *plain whose topographical features are described in the
Papers of the Afnerican School, Vol. III. p. 332. Near Giile Onii
we head about east. Forty-five minutes east of Egherdir the water-
shed is reached. A sharp descent brings us to Egherdir, situated
near the southwestern end of the lake which bears its name. Here
I was shown two ancient steelyards. The four sides of the bronze
beams were all different, each side being apparently intended for a
different standard of weight. The great intervals corresponding to
our one, two, three, etc., pound notches, were marked by letters of
the Greek alphabet. From the style of the letters the steelyards
must be placed in the late Roman or early Byzantine period. The
heavy weight was a bronze head of Zeus, filled with lead. The work-
manship of this head was much too good for the period mentioned.
I could not buy them.
June 16. Egherdir to Gelendos, 7 h. 58 m. In 42 m. we cross
the Boghaz Su by a bridge at its exit from Egherdir G61. It is a
strong, deep, and very rapid stream. I afterwards traced it up in
1885 (cf. Papers of the American School, Vol. III. pp. 309-310, and
pp. 317-318). The road henceforth for four hours is very difficult.
It follows in general the coast of the lake, and crosses a succession of
spurs or benches of the mountain, which fall off more or less per-
pendicularly into the lake. A new road has been constructed recently :
much blasting has been done, and abutments have been built where
the road lies along the edge of the lake. In 4 h. 42 m. from Egherdir
we reach the Devrend, which is situated just at the point where therough road over the Demir Kapu (called also Eyerim Bel) ceases.
Henceforward the road lies in a plain. We pass a large Seldjuk
Khan 50 m. north of the Devrend.
From this point on the reader may consult the large map in
Vol. III. of the Papers of the American School.
June 17. Gelendos to Yalowadj, 5 h. 14 m. For the topograph-
ical details of this region of country, and for numerous inscriptions
not given in this present volume, see the Papersof
the
AmericanSchool, Vol. III. pp. 218-278.

My copy and impression justify the restorations of Henzen, but
not Borghesi's conjecture of SOLLERTI in lines i and 2. While in
the presence of the stone I made a note to the effect that the end of
line I must be either SOD I or SOS I, and now an inspection of the
impression convinces me of the accuracy of my note. The letter
immediately following SO cannot possibly be an L, and while a D
might not be absolutely impossible, yet all the indications go to show
that the letter must be an S. The letters of line i are larger than
those of the following lines, and unfortunately no D occurs in it ; but
nevertheless it is safe to assert that the fragmentary letter in question
is too narrow for a D, whereas it is of exactly the same size as the
corresponding part of the two S's in Hne i and resembles them in
every way.The CAPPADOCI AE looked for by Mommsen in line 3 is certainly
wanting : evidently the administrations of Cappadocia and Galatia
were separate at this time.

No. 108 is inserted here because it adds to the list of names givenin No. 107 that of C. Caristanius Fronto. An inscription of this same
C. Caristanius Fronto has been pubHshed in the Bulletin de Corre-
spojidance Hellenique, 1886, p. 46, where he is irpco-yScvr^s airoKpa.Topo'i
as here, but from our inscription we learn that he was also dyri-
a-Tpa.TT)yo<i Av/ctas koL na/i<^vA.tas. In lines 7 and 8 of my No. 108
the name of the emperor has been erased. Now the name of
Vespasian was never erased, and the remarks of Messrs. Cousin and
Diehl (^Bulletin, as citedp. 47)
prove only that the period we have
to deal with is that of the Flavian emperors. Vespasian is out of the
question for the above reason, and consequently it is probable that
the name of Domitian must be restored in No. 108. The Bulletin,
as cited p. 47, also publishes an inscription of C. Caristanius Paulinas.

The incompleteness of Hamilton's copies of the two Dottius in-

notice the ligatures.

No. 130 above [=C./.Z, III. 296; Le Bas-Waddington, Voyage
Archeologique, 1822] certainly has Cermalus as the name of the
vicus, and consequently M. Waddington's conjecture of Germanusis untenable. Professor Mommsen tells me that K€pfwXo<: is the
writing of the Greeks and that Cermalus is the only true form, though
not acknowledged by modem scholars. The known vici of Antiochia
now number six, the names of which are given in the last six inscrip-
tions, viz. Tuscus, Cerjjialus, Aedilicius, Velabrus, Patricius, Salu-
iaris. It is a singular fact that the modem city of Yalowadj is
composed of twelve^ vici— called Mahalliilar [Mahallu being the
Arabic word for " Quarter"'\
— and these modem vici may be aninheritance from antiquity.

that the words between 6p(f>ava rlKva and xu.pa<i oXolto form two
hexameters, else he would have thrown the first part into verse (see
C.I.G. 4000, also 3862, 3875, 3990^). The name of the husband
is wanting in the panel ; an oversight of the stonecutter.

It is, of course, impossible to determine which city is meant as
the native town of Titus ; if the city in the SandiikU Ovasii be the
one meant, then 'l£[pg]7roActTy must be restored (see Journal of
Hellenic Studies, 1882, p. 340 sqq.. Bulletin de Correspondance Hel-
lenique, 1882, p. 519); if the city in Phrygia Pacatiana be meant,
then 'l€[pa]7roActTg would be correct.

For additional inscriptions of Yalowadj (Antiochia Pisidiae) and
the region of country around it, see the Papers of the American
School at Athens, Vol. III. pp. 218-278.
The ruins of Antiochia Pisidiae have been sufficiently described
by former travellers, so that further mention by me is superfluous.
June 20. Yalowadj to Ak Shehir, 5 h. 42 m. Leaving Yalowadj
the road leads over the Acropolis of Antiochia in 30 m. to Hissar.
Thence we go up a narrow gorge, down which comes a stream of
water. In 43 m. from Hissar the gorge divides : we follow neither
arm, but ascend in abrupt zigzags the steep and rugged spur of the
mountain which lies between the two gorges. A new road was just
being constructed across the Sultan Dagh between Yalowadj and Ak
Shehir. It was finished in spots, and hundreds of men were still at
work on it. It is of course superior to the old road, but the new
road will still remain a trying and laborious one. This road between
Yalowadj and Ak Shehir has hitherto been thought to be a pass.
But it is a pass only in so far as deep gorges lead up to the great
backbone of Sultan Dagh on either side (see the large map in
Vol. III. o{ Papers of the American School at Athens^. The moun-tain sends off ridges wthout number at right angles to the mountain
chain, and any two opposite gorges may be called a pass with as
much propriety as the two which lie on opposite sides of the mountain
between Yalowadj and Ak Shehir. The road reaches the great plain

But few remains of Greek antiquity are to be found at Philo-
melium ; but, on the other hand, the traveller is surprised by some
Seldjuk ruins of exquisite beauty. The accurate workmanship dis-
played, even in the execution of details, will compare favorably withGreek buildings of a good period.
At Ak Shehir I was joined, as had been previously arranged, by
my friend. Professor J. H. Haynes, then of Robert College, Con-
stantinople, now of the Central Turkey College, Aintab, Syria. Mr.
Haynes accompanied me as photographer during the rest of the
journey. My travelling-outfit had been left at Smyrna, and I had
not fared well thus far. The advent of Mr. Haynes and the outfit
was hailed with delight ; for henceforwardwe
could have substantial
food, on which depends in great measure the success of an expedition
like this.
June 21. Ak Shehir to Engilli, i h. 24 m. From Ak Shehir my
route lay along the foot of Sultan Dagh in a southeasterly direction to
Daghan Hissar. This region is very populous, and what is a blank
mountainous space on the old maps is in reahty a plain full of pros-
perous villages (see the l?jge map in Vol. IH. of the Papers of the
American School at Athens)
June 23. Engilli to Daghan Hissar, 5 h. 5 m. My route lay
along the foot of Sultan Dagh, and is indicated by the red line on
the map. I found no inscriptions in the villages between Engilli and
Kara Agha, but the topographical results were abundant.

Leaving Engilli Mr. Haynes passed through the villages Gedil,
Aghayiit, Regiz, Ortakieui, Kotchash, Yazir, Tchetme, meeting me at
Daghan Hissar. On this excursion he copied Nos. 163-173. Thetime occupied by Mr. Haynes between Engilli and Daghan Hissar
was 4 h. 41 m. His route lay wholly in the plain, while mine crossed
a succession of low spurs that run off from Sultan Dagh (see the map
as cited above), but very near the point where the mountain ceases
and the plain begins. This accounts for the fact that he made the
trip in less time than I did (5 h. 5 m.), although my route was the
straight line.

Daghan Hissar is a modem town without any ancient remains.
June 24. Daghan Hissar to Ashagha Dinek, 4 h. 18 m. We
again cross Sultan Dagh to the plain of Kara Aghatch, blank on the old -
maps, but now filled in by my journeys of 1884 and 1885 (see the
map in Papers of the American School, Vol. III.) . As will be seen
from the map the road does not begin to cross Sultan Dagh from
Daghan Hissar, as given on Tchihatcheff 's map. In reality it goes
up the gorge, at the mouth of which Kara Agha is situated. We
ascend from Tchetme and join the true road in 36 m. The road
crosses a real pass ; the ascent on the eastern side is gentle but
steady ; the descent on the western side is sharper and more pre-
cipitous. The pass is low.
June 25. Ashagha Dinek to Yalowadj, 5 h. 50 m. We pass

Tcharuk Serai lies in a fertile little valley about an hour east of
Kara Aghatch. It is a cluster of seven large and prosperous villages.
The whole community goes by the name of Tcharuk Serai ; but each
of the seven villages has its own distinctive name, with the addition
of the Arabic word Mahallu, " Quarter "(^e.g. Tchukurmahallii,
Ulumahallii, etc.), in short, precisely the same state of affairs as pre-
vails in the Yalowadj of to-day, where there are twelve " Quarters."
Perhaps here, as at Yalowadj, these " Quarters " represent ancient
vici. Tcharuk Serai is certainly the site of an ancient town;possibly
Pappa must be placed here, but no documentary proof exists at
present.

1*1 P u1 This was published in my Preliminary Report on an Archaological Journey
made in Asia Minor during the Summer 0/1884, but for some reason, which I
cannot explain, several errors have crept into the text as presented there. Above
I present a corrected text.

P F A V G <^It seems that Side A must fall into two fragments of inscriptions
the one having been partially hacked off to give place to a new one,which, in its turn, was left in an incomplete state. It is not easy to
unravel Nos. i and 2, owing to the fact that No. 2 does not furnish
data enough to justify an attempt at restoration. Accordingly I simply
transcribe in minuscules the text as it stands on the stone :
Nos. I and 2.
(I)uobus) d(ominis) n(ostris) Fl(avio) Cl(audio) Con-
stantino Maximo [P(io) F(elici) Inv(icto) Aug(usto)]et Fl(avio) Jul(io) Constantio et Fl(avio) Cl(audio)

Pontif(ici) Max(imo), trib(uniciae) pot(estatis) XIII,

We are not without proof that the people of this region of country
were ignorant both of the number and the names of their rulers ; see
Mommsen's remarks in the Ephemeris Epigraphica, 1884, p. 594,
No. 1403. This ignorance is shown in our inscription by the
omission of the name of Flavius Julius Constans, and by the fact that
the D D N N claims that there were only two emperors.

No. 4.
The reading of No. 4 is curious, but it is certain, and is vouchedfor by the impression. Lines 3, 4, 5 seem to show that the inscrip-
tion is a repetition of No. 2, inasmuch as the name must be M. Aur.
Val. Maximianus. But while we should look for the name of Dio-
cletianus in line 2, we find only strange letters. It may even be that
No. 4 contains fragments of two inscriptions.
The stone is at least seven miles out of place,
Man Agha is situated in a deep Dere. Henceforward our road
crosses a succession of low spurs that run off from Sultan Dagh.
Between each of these spurs there is a narrow valley, each with its
village and stream of water.

June 28. Derekieui to Munafer, 5 h. 11 m. Shortly after passing
Tchaltu we enter the pass between Kizil Dagh and the outliers of
Sultan Dagh, reaching the watershed in i h. 14 m. Leaving Felle
(see Papers of the Atnerican School, Vol. IIL pp. 192-193) to our
right, we reach the ruins called Monastir in 2 h. 30 m. from Beikieui.
Monastir is situated at the northern limit of the plain of Kirili Kas-saba ; the ruins are unimportant. Here Mr. Ramsay locates Misthia
(see Americanfournal ofArchaeology, I. p. 146). Near the site there
is a mound, which may have served as an Acropolis. It has every
appearance of an artificial mound. Leaving Monastir we traverse the
plain, reaching Kirili Cassaba in 56 m.

The name OvaXivTiXXa occurs in an inscription of Antiochia
Pisidiae above, No. 138.
Kirili Kassaba is a small market town, as the name indicates. It
is very malarious during the summer and early fall. Leaving Kirili
Kassaba we traverse a rolling country, passing Tchukurkend and
Yenidje, and reaching Munafer in i h. 45 m. Munafer is a wretched
village situated on the edge of a swamp, and like all the villages near
the lake it is very unhealthy. On the contrary, the numerous and
prosperous villages on the high ground along the northeastern edge
of the plain of Kirili Kassaba are not malarious.
June 30. Munafer, via Eflatun Puiiar, to Yoniislar, 7 h. 15 m.
We visit Eflatun Punar in order to secure photographs of the
important monument. One of these photographs has been published
by Dr. William Hayes Ward in the American Journal of Archaeology,
Vol. 11. (1886) pp. 47-51 and Plate I. Professor Kiepert thinks
that the name of the place is Eflatun, not Elflatun. Eflatun is the
Arabo-Turkish pronunciation of Platon, a name which cannot have
the Arabic article el.
Leaving Eflatun Puiiar we pass Selki, immediately beyond which
place we ascend to a table-land. As we advance, this plateau gradually
becomes rolling and barren. The few inscriptions of Yoniislar are
given in the Papers of the American School, Vol. III. Nos. 313-315.

IN ASIA MINOR, 2£5
We spent two days in Konia copying inscriptions and taking
photographs of the Seldjuk city.
Thepeople
ofthis
eastern countryseem to have had Httle interest in the affairs of this world, and spent
their surplus energy in preparing tombs and epitaphs for themselves
witness the above inscriptions. When Leake passed through Konia,
the walls of the city were full of inscriptions, which he had no time
to copy. After the destruction of Konia by the Egyptians, under
Ibrahim Pasha in 1833, these walls were used as quarries for the
modern city of Konia. The inscriptions seen by Leake have all
perished in this way before an epigraphist was found to copy them.
But many inscriptions are no doubt still in the walls that remain, with
the inscribed side hidden from view. Part of the wall had been
thrown down only a short time previous to our visit, and I copied
several inscriptions that had been brought to light in this way. These
walls, though most probably of Seldjuk origin, were built in the
common Greek fashion (Thuc. L 93) ; that is, two walls were built
at a fixed distance apart, and the space between them was filled with
earth and stone debris. At Konia the filling consisted mostly of
simple clay or mud, which took faithful impressions of the stones
composing the outer shell of the wall, so that one may now see therein
neat reliefs of inscriptions, Phrygian doors, and architectural frag-
ments. The ruins of the buildings erected by the early Seldjuk
Sultans of Konia speak in elegant terms of former splendor.
The Governor of the Vilayet of Konia, Said Pasha, who studied in
England and speaks English fluently, showed us kind attentions in
more ways than one. He is collecting the most important antiquities
of the district, as they come to light, for the Imperial Museum in
Constantinople, and the collection is not without interest. Among
other things may be mentioned a frieze in very high relief. Unfor-
tunately we were unable to get photographs of the collection.
July 5. Konia to Obruk, 9 h. 47 m. The road from Konia to
Ak Serai, the ancient Archelais, crosses the desert region. The plain,
up to the pass in Boz Dagh, is absolutely level, and the thirsty travel-
ler is mocked on all sides by the Fata Morgana, promising water
near at hand ; but the promised water recedes continually, and finally
turns out to be nothing but a deceptive mirage. We did not think
it necessary to water our horses at Zeivedjik, and consequently they
had to make the whole long journey to Obruk thirsting.

The well bears the name :" weli with the ninety-nine steps." The
steps leading down to the water are still in situ; the water is
brackish. At the ruined and deserted Dibidelik Khan there is a
great well, both with a vertical well-shaft, and with a tunnel leading
down to the water at an angle of about 30°. The water cannot be
drunk by man or beast. This point is the limit of the waterless
and hence desert plain of Konia.
At Obruk there is a little lake, the surface of which is about ninety
feet below the surrounding country. The villagers use the water of
this lake for household purposes. We were told that the water is
drinkable at all seasons of the year, except for two weeks in Decem-
ber, when it is in a state of violent ebullition. When this season
approaches, the villagers lay in a supply of water sufficient to last
until the lake has resumed its wonted calm. How true this may be,
or what causes the ebullition of the water, I am not prepared to say.
July 6. Obruk to Sultan Khan, 7 h. 31 m. The country is not
a level plain, but is gently rolling ground. The land would every-
where be productiveif it
couldonly
beirrigated. Unfortunately,
water can be had only at intervals, for instance, at the villages Orta-
kuyu, Bakharakh, Erdodu. These vilfages raise crops that can do
with the winter and spring rains, such as wheat and barley, but they
rely mainly on their herds for subsistence.
Sultan Khan is the grandest and most beautiful of all the remains
of Seldjuk splendor seen by us in Asia Minor. We spent one day in
its welcome shade, during which time numerous photographs were
taken, and the huge building was roughly measured. One of the
Arabic inscriptions says that it was built in 1277 a.d. A very large
spring rises near Sultan Khan, and the land yields abundant harvests
wherever it can be properly irrigated. Indeed, this is true almost
everywhere in Asia Minor.

228 AN EPIGRAPHICAL JOURNEY
July 8. Sultan Khan to Ak Serai, 7 h. 53 m. We pass the ruins
of a Seldjuk Khan in 4 h. 15 m. from Sultan Khan. Ak Serai is a
sleepy uninteresting town, with but few traces of the Graeco-Roman
civilization ; but the foot-prints of the Seldjuks are abundant.
Henceforth the reader may consult the map of Southern Cappa-
docia, which accompanies this volume.

July 9. Ak Serai to Selme, 4 h. 4 m. At Selme we found numer-
ous dwellings cut in the rock, similar to those described by the early
travellers at Soghanlii Dere and Udjessar. In fact, we found such
rock-cut dwellings wherever the soft volcanic tufa appears (Hamilton,
Researches, I. p. 97). Selme is situated in a deep gorge, through
which the Irmak flows, and in which, in fact, it has its source. The
cliff to the east rises perpendicularly to a height of from four to five
hundred feet ; at its base there is a maze of sharp natural cones,
similar to those in the region around Udjessar. Most of these cones
have been excavated for human dwellings, often with several stories.
These excavations are used as dwellings now, as in ancient times.
The whole cliff is honey-combed into dwellings, chambers, chapels,
passages, and tombs ; story rising upon story. Here and there may
be seen small temple fagades on the exterior of the cliffs, especially
at Ikhlara. These facades resemble those in the region of the tomb
of Midas. People still live and die in these rock-cut dwellings, at
least two hundred feet high on the cliff. There is no earthly reason
why they should live there, as the country is safe and land abundant
but they do not seem to object to the dark winding stairs and
passages.Across the Irmak, five or ten minutes south of Selme, is the village
of Ikhlara, the cliff behind which is also similarly honey-combed into
dwellings. Conspicuous on the exterior of the cliff are temple
facades, which were doubtless intended for tombs. A short distance
east of Ikhlara the Irmak gushes out at the foot of the cliffs, a full-
grown river at its source.
July 10. Selme to Kuyulu Tatlar, 4 h. 49 m. Leaving Selme we
immediately ascend the bluff, and henceforward traverse an open
country. The old map of this region, founded on von Moltke's flying
ride, and the new sketch founded on the travels of Vrontchenko and
Tchihatcheff, are all wrong. The map accompanying this volume
will be found to be more accurate, it is hoped.

230 AN EPIGRAPHICAL JOURNEY
July II. Kuyulu Tatlar to Ortakieui, 5 h. 34 m. Kuyulu Tatlar
is so called from twelve or fifteen wells, all in a cluster. From them
the village is supplied with water. This region, though blank on the
old map, has numerous villages. It may be noted that the Tada Su
of the old map does not exist, at least not in the plain of Kuyulu
Tatlar and Malagob ; and, furthermore, the drain-water from this
district must run south, and not north, as on the old map. Malagob
is a large and flourishing village, whose inhabitants are in the main
Greek-speaking Greeks. The Greeks are numerous all through the
western part of Cappadocia. As a general rule they cling to their
language with great tenacity, a fact worthy of notice, inasmuch as the
Greeks in other parts of Asia Minor speak only Turkish. Their dialect
has been treated by Kapo\t8r}<i in the Mova-etov koI BlPXloOt^ktj r^s
EuayyeAt/c^s S^oAiys, published in Smyrna. Instances of Greek-
speaking towns or villages are Nigde, Gelvere, Malagob, and Orta-
,kieui, in what is commonly but wrongly called Soghanlii Dere. Leav-
ing Malagob we shortly ascend a hill, which turns out to be the rim
or bluff of an elevated plateau, extending east as far as Develii Kara
Hissar, Soghanlii Dere, Ortakieui Dere, and what other Deres
there may be, are mere breaks in this plateau, and the top of the
bluffs of all the Deres correspond with the general level of the sur-
rounding plateau. The descent down into Ortakieui Dere is made
by an artificial road that has been excavated out of the soft tufa.
July 12. Ortakieui to Develii Kara Hissar. We got lost between
Ortakieui and Soghanlii Dere, and the exact time cannot be given.
The time between Balak and Develii Kara Hissar is i h. 50 m.
The wonders of Soghanlii Dere have been described by Hamilton.
The rock-cut dwellings are more numerous, but of the same character
as those at Selme and Ikhlara ; only at Soghanlii Dere there are no
temple facades to be seen. At Bashkieui the Ortakieui Dere is about
one hundred yards wide ; but the width increases steadily, reaching
a width of from five to seven hundred yards at the point where
Soghanlii Dere branches off" laterally from it. While the surrounding
plateau is a barren waste, the soil in the Deres is exceedingly fertile,
delighting the eye with its luxuriant gardens. This is especially the
case at Ortakieui. Whether these rock-cut habitations date originally
from an earlier epoch or not, it is at all events certain that they were
used by the early Christians. But such habitation goes back to a period

SO remote that the Christian Greeks of Ortakieui have no traditions
concerning it. Chapels are numerous, in some of which may still be
seen pictures of Byzantine Saints, with inscriptions just like those
common in orthodox churches of to-day. Among the Saints depicted
are Se'pytos, Ba^osj MepKoupios (see Nos. 258 and 261). In the floor
of the chapels graves were cut, in some of which we found human
skeletons. Indeed, such tombs are frequent in the dwellings them-
selves, so that, as Hamilton remarks, the people lived in the same
room with their pigeons and their dead. Innumerable pigeons live
in the rock-cut dwellings both of Soghanlii Dere and Udjessar. At
the latter place the villagers pay great attention to them and use
them for food.

Zengibar Kalesi is situated about half an hour west of Develu Kara
Hissar. It is a lofty rock with two peaks, one of which is consider-
ably higher than the other. In the saddle between the two peaks
nestles Kalekieui. There can scarcely be a doubt but that the higher
peak of Zengibar Kalesi is Nova, the proud rock where Eumenes and
his little band defied the whole army of Antigonus for nearly a year.
July 14. Develu Kara Hissar to Indjesu, 4 h. 53 m. We traverse
the new road. Th^ country is desolate. We suffered much from the
intense cold, in spite of the fact that to-day is July 14th.
July 15. Indjesu, via Kaisariye, to Talas, 6 h. 29 m. We cross
the southern end of the great Sazlik, or p/ace of the bulrushes, fixing
its coast line.
July 16. Talas to Ispile, i h. 20 m. Parting with regret from
our kind friends, the American missionaries of Caesarea, we hurried
on to the region east of the Antitaurus.

July 1 7. Ispile to Yokara Suvergen, on the eastern bank of the
Zamantia Tchai, 6 h. 59 m. The country northwest of Tomarza is
uninteresting and barren, except in the Deres, in which all the villages
are situated. Tomarza is a large Armenian town, with considerable
traces of ancient remains, most probably Armenian. At Sheikh
Barakh we reached the Zamantia Tchai, which is spanned by a bridge
at this point. We forded the river opposite Ashagha Suvergen ; it
is deep and rapid.
July 18. Yokara Suvergen to Ak Puriar, 7 h. 37 m. We crossed
the Antitaurus bythe precipitous
pass between Dede Dagh and BeiDagh. The region east of the Antitaurus was hitherto unknown ; we
found it fertile and well- populated. The inhabitants are Avshars and
Circassians. These Circassians are refugees from Circassian Russia,
and were assigned homes here by the Turkish government. Here,
as everywhere, they have the reputation of being great cut-throats
and robbers, but we were treated with the most distinguished con-
sideration and kindness by them. Afterwards we visited numerous
Circassian villages, and we have the same good report to give of
them every^vhere. I am told, however, that this was due to the fact
that my chief servant was a Circassian. It is always pleasant to enter
a Circassian village, for everywhere one sees order, thrift, and cleanli-
ness, a refreshing treat after a prolonged sojourn in the wretched
hovels of the Turkish peasantry.
July 19. Ak Puiiar to Shahr, 3 h. 20 m. In 2 h. 25 m. the plain
closes in to a wild and rugged gorge. The river Seihun, the ancient
Sarus, has cut its way through the mountains in many curves, each
curve corresponding to a projecting spur of the mountain. Shahr,
the ancient Comana, is the only place marked on Tchihatcheff's
map south of Olakaya. The great goddess Ma is no longer wor-
shipped at Comana ; but, to our great astonishment, we found a
Protestant church there, composed of the converts of the American
missionaries. We spent a day here copying inscriptions. We also
ascended Kiilek Dagh, on the summit of which we found a large and
impregnable fortress of great antiquity, antedating the Roman con-
quest, most probably.

The ruins of Comana are by no means extensive. Chief among
them are the temple, the ruins of the theatre, and a highly orna-
mental portal.
Comana was once so rich in temples and brilUant edifices that it
bore the name of the " Golden." Ev«n in the time of the first
crusaders it was pulcherrima and opima. For the line of march of
the first crusade, see Ritter, Klein-Asien, II. p. 265-272.
July 21. Shahr to Hadjin, 8 h. 12 m. We turn our faces toward
the south. This day was rich in topographical results, and the map
of Tchihatcheff was found to be wrong in almost every particular ; see
the map accompanying this volume, Hadjin is on the right, not on
the left side of the Seihun, as is the case on Tchihatcheff's map.
Hadjin is a modem town, inhabited solely by Armenians. It is in a
great hole in the mountains, many hundred feet below the level of
the surrounding country. Every available spot is occupied by a
house, and we could not even find a place large enough for our
camp. Hadjin is a seat of the American missionaries, whose hospi-
tality we enjoyed during our stay, and whom we left with many regrets.
July 22. Hadjin to a point west of Kilissedjik, 7 h. 6 m. We
ascend from Hadjin to the plateau in i h. 10 m., and in 3 h. 17 m.
from Hadjin we reach the bluff of the great caiion of the Seihfin
(Sarus). The canon is fully one thousand feet deep. The bluffs
are almost perpendicular, so that, as one stands on the edge and
looks down, it seems scarcely possible for a living being to descend
and ascend;yet it may be done. The descent from the top of the
bluff to the river bed occupied 37 m. The ascent of the eastern bluff
occupied 41m. Leaving the eastern bluff we travel for 2 h. 35 m. in
the direction of Kilissedjik, which point we had hoped to reach, but
finding ourselves hopelessly lost, and night having set in, we encamped.
July 23. From our camp i h. 59 m. west of Kilissedjik to Goksiin,
5 h. 8 m. Kilissedjik is simply an Avshar Yaila. We found here
two tombs of the Graeco-Roman period. The country east of the
Seihun is wooded until within a short distance of the plana of Gokstin.

ROMAN MILLIARIA AT COCUSSUS.
The Roman milliaria given below are about eight feet high and
three feet in diameter at the base, tapering off to a very thick, blunt
point at the top. They are accordingly cone-like in shape. The
stones are all very rough and unpolished, and the surface is full of
elevations and indentations. It is obvious that mscriptions on such
a rugged, uneven surface are very difficult to read, and that, with-
out some practical experience in field epigraphy, one would standbefore them absolutely helpless. Impressions of such inscriptions are
altogether worthless, as trial has proved to me conclusively.

A mate to this inscription was copied by Mr. Ramsay about six
miles to the northeast of Comana, and was published by Mr. Wad-
dington in the Bulletin de Correspondance Hellcnique, 1883, p. 144,
from which it was transferred to Ephemeris Epigraphica, 1884, p. 37,
No. 77. Mr. Waddington suggests that the fragmentary condition
of these inscriptions is probably due to the shortness of the reign of
the emperors Pupienus and Balbinus, which, lasting only three months,
was no doubt already a thing of the past before the repairs of the
roads were completed by the legate Severus. It seems clear that
Severus had already caused the inscriptions of Pupienus and Balbinus
Augusti and Gordianus Caesar to be engraved on the stones when
the news of the deaths of the emperors reached him. Then before
putting the milestones in place he caused the names of Pupienus and
Balbinus to be erased [not because the names of the emperors had
been abolished, but solely for the sake of historical accuracy] , chang-
ing RESTITVERVNTto RESTITVIT, but leaving to Gordianus III.
the title of Nobilissittius Caesar, notwithstanding the fact that he
was now emperor. Professor Momrasen, in Ephemeris Epigraphica,
1884, p. 37, No. 77, calls attention to the erasure of the names of
these two emperors in Britain in C.I.L. VII. 510 : Deleta autem sunt
otnnitio nan iussu Gordiani, sed erro7-e provincialium longe a turbis
illis remotum.

IN ASIA MINOR. 243
Mr. Waddington points out further that after the death of Maxi-
minus a certain Cuspidius Celerinus proposed to the senate to confer
the imperial purple upon Pupienus and Balbinus (Capitolinus, vita
Maximini, 26). It is not improbable, therefore, that our legate,
Cuspidius Flaminius Severus, was a son or other family connection
of Cuspidius Celerinus, and that the province of Cappadocia was
bestowed upon him in return for the services rendered by his father.
At a later date the inscription of Diocletian-Maximian-Con-
stantius-Galerius was incised in the place made vacant by the
erasure of the names and titles of Pupienus and Balbinus. Only a
fragment of this inscription now remains, but it is sufficient to enable
one to restore it with certainty.

15 X PMAThis is the one hundred and forty-first milestone.
This stone has two inscriptions, the one engraved on top of the
other. The restitutores of roads and bridges during the reign of
Diocletian-Maximian under C. Julius Flaccus Aelianus made use of
the old Milliaria, and caused inscriptions of Diocletian-Maximian to
be engraved on them \vithout any regard for the already existing
inscriptions. Thus, as in this inscription and in others below, two
or even three inscriptions are found so mixed up that it requires
both patience and ingenuity to disentangle them.
To inscription A belong lines 1-3 and 8-15 inclusive, as well as
the ET at the beginning of line 7. After this ET there followed in
the original inscription of the Maximini the name of C. Julius Verus

Maximinus, the younger, which was afterwards erased. The resti-
tutores of Diocletian-Maximian utiHzed the space thus made vacantfor their own purposes, inserting INVICTO, etc.

The AVR in line 4 is not sufficient to authorize a restoration. It
seems probable, however, that the inscription is that of an emperor
other than those mentioned on known milliaria of Cataonia or Melitene.
The last letters PKE look like numerals [125], but the matter is
not certain, because the letters are too small and in the wrong place,
if one may judge by the analogy of all the other numbered milliaria
of Cataonia.

July 24. Goksiin to Tasholuk, oh. 52 m. Tasholuk is the site
of an old town. The plain of Goksiin (Cocussus) is remarkable both
for its exuberant fertility and for its springs and rivers. Immense
springs, sufficient in themselves to form a respectable stream, rise on
every hand.
July 25. Tasholuk, via Deirmen Deresi, Kiredj Oghlu, and
Goksiin, to Yalak, 7 h. 32 m.

254 AN EPIGRAPHICAL JOURNEY
This inscription was erected in the ninth year of Trajan. It informs
us that Zeus Epikarpios was worshipped here ; indeed, in so fertile aplain, we should naturally expect to meet with the cult of some god
of the harvest.
In 2 h. 47 m. from Tasholuk we regain Goksiin, and pass on,
going up the valley of the Tolbiizek Su, and reaching Mehemet
Beikieui in i h. 22 m. from GoksUn.
II.
MILLIARIA ON THE ROMAN ROAD FROM COMANA TO COCUSSUS.
On this excursion from Goksiin to Yalak, which is only six miles
from Shahr, we found a number of milliaria, and thus were enabled
to trace the Roman road from Comana to Cocussus in its entire
length.
Nos. 288-289.

Two inscriptions, the one of Diocletian-Maximian, the other of
Elagabalus [perhaps], are hopelessly mixed up together. The
restorations must be the same as in the other inscriptions of those
emperors in this series. Compare No. 323 especially.

The RA at the beginning of line g is problematic.
The name of this legate, Antonius Memmius Hiero, is now known
with accuracy from this inscription. It occurred, indeed, in an in-
scription published in the Bulletin de Correspondance Hellenique,
1883, p. 142, No. 30, whence it was inserted in the Ephemeiis
Epigraphica, 1884, p. 38, No. 79, but it was in so fragmentary a
condition that it had to be restored by conjecture.
From the • • • • N EM of that inscription Mr. Waddington con-
jectured \Seneci'\onem, and suggests that the same name must be
restored in an inscription of Tavium, published in the Bulletin de
Correspondance Hellenique, 1883, p. 26. This inscription was also
copied by me. But certainly Hieronem must now be read instead of
Senecionem, and in case the two inscriptions make mention of one
and the same person, as seems likely, then his full name is M. An-
tonius Memmius Hiero.

262 AN EPIGRAPHICAL JOURNEY
The Antonine Itinerary for the whole Antitauran region seems to
be hopelessly confused, and its inconsistencies will perhaps never besatisfactorily explained. On p. 210 we read :
—
A Coduzalaba
Coniana XXVI
Siricis XXIIII
while on page 211 we have the following :
Item a Caesarea Anazarbo CCXI., sic
Arasaxa XXIIII
Coduzalaba XXIIII
Comana XXIIII
Siricis XVI
Cocuso XXV
Now the milliaria given above show that the Roman road between
Comana and Cocussus went, as one would naturally expect, by Yalak,
Kurdkieui, and Mehemet Beikieui ; and as the whole distance between
Shahr and Goksiin is reckoned as eight hours, there is plainly some-
thing wrong in the statements of the Antonine Itinerary. Both Yalak
and Kurdkieui are sites of small ancient towns ; but the most im-
portant of these was at Yalak, and at Yalak I am inclined to place
Siricae. In that case the Antonine Itinerary would be nearer the
truth if it were emended to read :—
Comana XXIIII
Siricis VI
Cocuso XV
Let it be noted that this, besides being a direct route, is the only
natural road-bed between Comana and Cocussus : on the northeast
lies the Bin Bogha Dagh, and on the southwest the Yuvadja Dagh.
It is wholly unreasonable tosuppose
thatthe Romans would
neglect
the only natural road-bed to carry a road over the huge mountains
just mentioned.
July 26. Yalak to Mehemet oeikieiii, 3 h. 35 m. We return in
the direction of Goksiin.

July 27. Mehemet Beikieui, via Kotchos, to GoksUn, 4 h. 37 m.
We traced the Tolbiizek Su to its source, which is about three-quarters
of an hour west of Mehemet Beikieui, at the foot of Yuvadja Dagh.
Here innumerable springs gush from the mountain side, and the
water from them is sufficient to form a large swift river of the purest,
coldest water.
No. 299.
Kotchos. On the slope of Yuvadja Dagh, in a cemetery near

above under No. 271. The original inscription was that of Pupienus
and Balbinus Augusti and Gordianus Caesar, the close of which is
found in lines 8-12 inclusive, and which read originally as follows :
A.
[Imp. Caes. M. Clodius Pupienus
Maximus et Imp. Caesar
D. Caelius Calvinus
Balbinus Pii Felices Augusti
et M. Antonius Gordianus
nobilissimus Caesar]

minium Severum [le-]
[gjatum p(r)o pr[ae]-
to[re].
Thenafter
the erasure of the names of Pupienus and Balbinus anew inscription of Gordianus III., couched in terms different from
those of the original inscription, was incised in the place made vacant
by the erasure. As in Nos. 271, 316 the closing lines of the first
inscription were allowed to stand, notwithstanding the fact that they
were out of place both grammatically and historically. The remnants
of this inscription are to be sought in lines 3, 5-7 inclusive, and must
be restored somewhat as follows :
B.

Gor[dian]o [Pio Fe-]
lici Augu[s]to.
Lastly, line 4 is almost certainly to be restored as
GALVALM AXI M ANO
and consequently we have before us an inscription of Diocletian-
Maximian-Constantius-Galerius Maximianus. To this inscription
belong lines 1-2, 4, and the latter part of hne 6. It must be
restored as follows :

In this cemetery there is still a fourth milliarium, deeply imbedded.
In a cemetery i h. 5 m. east of Gokstin there are two more milli-
aria ; one nearly buried, the other erect but illegible. It was im-
possible for us to get at half-buried stones that were distant from a

for four men in a country where levers are not to be had.

In the cemetery by the roadside 20 m. southeast of Kanlu Kavak
we found no less than twenty-six milliaria, many of which were never
inscribed. The inscribed stones cost us a day and a half of hard

2/4 AN EPIGRAPHICAL JOURNEY
In the light of Nos. 271, 304, this inscription becomes plain, and
falls into two inscriptions. The name of the legate Cuspidius Fla-
minius Severus fortunately is preserved here in full, and from it we
learn that the original inscription was one of Pupienus and Balbinus
Augusti and Gordianus Caesar. What is now left of it is contained
in the lines 6- 11 inclusive, with exception of the TO at the beginning
of line 6, which belongs to the second inscription. The original
inscription read as follows :
A.
[Imp(erator) Caesar M.Clodius Pupienus Maximus
et Imp. Caes. D. Caelius
Calvinus Balbinus
Pii Felic(es) Aug(usti) et
M. Antonius Gordianus

After the erasure of the names of Pupienus and Balbinus the new
inscription of Gordianus III. Augustus was incised, and is preservedintact in lines 1-5 inclusive, to which must be added the TO at the
beginning of line 6. It reads :
B.

The two inscriptions are badly confused on the stone, inasmuch
as the later inscription of Diocletian-Maximian-Constantius-Galerius
Maximian {B) has been incised over the older inscription of L.

Septimius Severus (A) in such fashion as to niake the whole unintel-
ligible at the first glance. It is impossible to present the inscriptions
accurately in uncial text, but I have tried to give at least an approxi-
mate idea of the truth.
Let us endeavor to disentangle the inscriptions !
Lines i and 2 belong wholly to B. Of line 3 IMPCAES belongs
to A, and MAVRVAL to B. Besides this a T was inserted after the
E of CA ES, and the ET thus obtained belongs to B.
MAXIMIANO was inserted between lines 3 and 4, and belongs to
B. All of line 4 belongs to A excepting the closing AVG, which
belongs to B, and follows the PP[F]E'^INV which is inserted
between lines 4 and 5. In this line the A of AVG has been so
carved as to resemble a ligature with the closing S of SEVERVS.
Lines 5, 6, 7 belong wholly to A, only perhaps at the close of
line 6 a disturbing effect has been produced by the incision of some-
thing belonging to B. The letters between lines 6-7 and 7-8 belong
to B. The NO at the close of line 8 probably originally followed
the name of P. Septimius Geta in line 9, that being the only theory
upon which I can account for its presence, which is certified by the
impression.
Lines 9, 10 belong to A, with the exception of the NObbCAESSin the middle of line 9, which belongs to B, and was incised in the
place made vacant by the erasure of the name of Geta.
After these preliminary explanations it will be clear that the in-
scriptions must be restored to read as follows :
A.

Kanlii Kavak. A quadrangular cippus in the cemetery has
a defaced inscription, of which only FAYKYTATUJ is to be
deciphered.
July 30. Kanlii Kavak, via Aristiilii and Kizildjik, to Kayadibi,
6 h. 37 m. Between Kanlii Kavak and Yarpuz no milliaria were
found. Indeed, all seem to have been transported from this whole
region to the cemetery of Kanlii Kavak to serve as tombstones. The
road of to-day traverses a rough and inhospitable country, but at
Kayadibi the plainis
again reached.July 31. Kayadibi, via Nadin and Altash, to Yarpuz, 6 h. 56 m.
The Goksiin Su was crossed twice to-day ; it is a large stream here.
Leaving Ertchin we cross the low Atlas Dagh to Yarpuz.

290 AN EPIGRAPHICAL JOURNEY
At Yalak the one hundred and forty-fourth miUiarium (No. 297)
was found. By a .glance at the numerals of the milliaria betweenYalak and Yarpuz it will be seen that the numerals diminish steadily
along this road, a fact which proves conclusively that distances in the
Trans-Antitauran region were measured from Melitene as the starting-
point.
From GoksUn the Goksiin Su goes down a narrow valley, and does
not flow south of Beirut Dagh, as it is made to do on the old map
constructed from von Moltke's hurried ride.

Arrived at Indjiler we find that we have lost the road to Khurman
Kalesi, and are advised to take a short cut through the mountains.
After wandering about in the uninhabited mountains until midnight
we reluctantly camped out.
August 2. We left camp at peep of da^, and for a wonder found
Khurman Kalesi at 4 o'clock a.m. Not being able to find food for
man or beast, we had to leave immediately for Tanir. The inscrip-
tions, for which we had undertaken the journey, were found after-
wards (Nos. 352-354). The time from Khurman Kalesi, via Tanir,
Norshun, and Merki, to Yarpuz was six hours. Tanir is the site of
an old town; no doubt the name is a corruption of TTTANAAPI5.

Rev. Henry Maiden has found a Hittite inscription at Isgin. My
excuse for not having found it myself is that I was very ill, and lay in
agony in an Oda in Isgin for the greater part of the day.
We found nine milliaria at Albistan, some of which were never in-
scribed, and the rest, with the single exception of No. 345, are wholly
illegible.

This inscription I did not see, as my line of march did not lie
along the valley of the Sarus above Comana.
The new light thrown upon the history of Cataonia by my milliaria
makes it certain that this inscription must be divided into two, the
restoration of both of which being beyond question. I venture to
insert it here mainly in order to clear up the doubts and questions
raised by Mr. Waddington in the Bulletin as cited above.
The original inscription {A), remnants of which are lines 4-10,
stood in the name of the Philippi Augusti. Mr. Waddington pointsout that in case the inscription belongs to Diocletian and Maximian
Augusti and Constantius and Maximian Caesares, as line 2 would
seem to indicate, then the title vir clarissimus legatus Augusti pro
praetore is historically inaccurate, inasmuch as from the times of
Diocletian on the province was governed only by a praeses or Con-
sularis. But my Nos. 290, 292, 294, 310, etc., make it perfectly
clear that the stone held two inscriptions, the oldest of which, being
in the name of the Philippi, might well enough give the governor the
title vir clarissimus legatiis Augusti pro praetore. From the same
inscriptions it is clear that Mr. Waddin<]rton's conjecture of Senecio as
the name of the legate is wrong, and that the name is Antonius Mem-
mius Hiero.

Owing to my severe illness we were detained three days in Albistan,
•during which time kind attentions were showered upon us by Rev.
and Mrs. Henry Harden, American missionaries of Marash.
Henceforward no milliaria were found. I am wholly unable to
account for this fact, as there are only two possible roads from Albis-tan to Melitene, one of which we traversed on the way out and the
other on our return. It may be safely affirmed, however, that the
Roman road did not go by way of Koz Agha and Pulat, since this
whole road is much too difficult. Had the Roman road gone this

way, it could not have avoided the abrupt pass of Ola Kaya, and it is
exactly this pass that
makesit
necessary to look for it elsewhere.The only other route is that by way of-Derinde, and thence down the
Tokhma Su to Malatia (the ancient Melitene).

We visited Arslan Tash and got photographs of the lions, discovered
by von Moltke. They once stood on either side of a gateway just
as the Assyrian Cherubim did. The Wolfe Expedition to Babylonia
discovered similar lions at Arslan Tash in the Serudj Ova, a day's
journey southeast of Biredjik in Mesopotamia. These Mesopotamian
lions are of much better workmanship, and besides are better pre-
served. But the two pairs of lions belong, no doubt, to the same
epoch.
The road southeast of BoyUk Yapalak traverses an open rolling
country ; it is barren, for the most part, there being no means of
irrigating it.
August 1 1 . Koz Agha to Pulat, 9 h. 1 1 m. A journey of great
difficulty, especially east of the Soghud Su, where the ascent to the
pass of Ola Kaya Dagh begins. The country is very rough. The
mountains are volcanic. The time from Koz Agha to the summit of
the pass of Ola Kaya is 7 h. 35 m. The descent is very abrupt, and
in places progress is almost impossible. In i h. 28 m. from the sum-
,mit of the pass we reach the. plain of Pulat.

August 12. Pulat to Kalaik, 8 h. 19 m. Thirty-nine minutes
north of Pulat we reach the low watershed, and thenceforth go down
a small arm of the Sultan Tchai, which we cross a short distance east
of Tchutlu. The eastern bank of the Sultan Tchai is a great bluff,
which is ascended in 21 m. We then find ourselves on a great
elevated plateau, which is broken by the two rivers west of Kalaik.
Kalaik is situated on the western bluff of the river, and about six
hundred feet above the river. A very large canal of ice-cold water
flows through Kalaik, and goes all the way to Malatia. It is this
canal which furnishes the city of Malatia with its abundant supply of
water. Besides this it irrigates the whole intervening country, which
is a veritable garden spot. A great variety of fruit trees grow on
every hand, and the fruit of Malatia is celebrated fdr and wide.
August 13.- Kalaik to Malatia, i h. 46 m. We pass through the
delightful forest of fruit trees that extend all the way to Malatia.
Their cool refreshing shade is delightful to the traveller after a journey
of weeks through a treeless country. The new city of Malatia is
reckoned as the half-way station on the overland route from "Con-
stantinople to Baghdad. It is a wide-awake business town, and in
this respect it differs very materially from the ordinary' Turkish town.
When the Egyptians were at war with the Sultan a large number of
Turkish troops were quartered for an indefinite period on the people
of old Malatia, which stood on the site of Mehtene. This was more
than the long-suffering inhabitants could bear; so they abandoned
their old homes to the soldiers, and built a new city among the
gardens seven or eight miles southwest of Melitene. After the war-
troubles were over the people still clung to their new abodes.

August 14. Malatia, via Melitene, to the junction of the Tokhma
Su with the Euphrates, opposite Sheikh Hassan, 3 h. 16 m., and
return to Malatia. Melitene is now a mass of ruins; among them
many fine specimens of the ornamented architecture of the Seldjuks
are conspicuous. The whole country between Melitene and the
Euphrates is exceedingly fertile.
August 15. Malatia to Sara Hadji, 8 h. 37 m. West of Arga we
cross a mountain to Kiirdkieui ; then comes a wild gorge and a steep
ascent to Sara Hadji on the mountain side. Here our whole party
escaped being murdered only by a miracle, and man and beast
hungered until the night of the following day.
August 16. Sara Hadji to Mlighde, 8 h. 45 m. leaving Sara
Hadji we reach the summit of the mountain in 43 m. Then we
descend to another Kiirdkieui, situated in a wild gorge, then another
great mountain is crossed, and finally the Tokhma Su is reached at
Bel-i-Gedik. At this point the river flows through narrows for half a
mile. A perpendicular wall of rock, three or four hundred feet high,
is on either side of the river. Consequently the road has to climbthe little mountain. Once across this mountain we go up the open
valley of the Tokhma Su to Mtighde, where we halt a day to recruit
ourselves and horses after our long fast. The whole mountain coun-
try between Arga and the Tokhma Su is inhabited solely by Kurds,
an inhospitable, murderous set of filthy villains, who still preserve all
the ferocious characteristics of their ancestors, the ancient KopSoSxot,
of whom Xenophon has little good to report in the Anabasis.
.August 18. Miighde, via Derinde, to Yenikieui, 6 b. 22 m. The
valley between Mughde and Derinde is very fertile. An hour east
of Old Derinde the valley contracts to a gorge, and New Derinde
stretches out on both sides of the river for the whole distance between
this point and the Derinde of the old map. Old Derinde was aban-
doned like Old Malatia, and for the same reason. It is now a grand
mass of ruins. Derinde means ''in or at the gorge." Professor
Kiepert regards the name as a popular interpretation of the ancient
name AcAcvSt's. At Old Derinde the river has cut its way through the
solid rock, which rises perpendicularly to a height of three or four hun-
dred feet on either side of the river. The width of the pass through
which the river thus flows is about fifty feet. On the right bank is the
almost impregnable castle, probably dating from the time of the early
Turks ; at the foot of the castle and west of it lies the abandoned town.

Ashta is also situated in a gorge. The top of the eastern bluff
corresponds with the general level of the surrounding plateau. Upto this point the country is difficult and our progress slow. When
2 h. 13 m. out from Derinde we found a small lion in black basalt by
the roadside. Photographs were taken, but it was just growing dark,
and they did not succeed well. After leaving the lion a heavy thun-
derstorm overtook us ; my men got separated into four parties, each
of which got lost. It was about midnight when we were all together
again at Yenikieui. It would have been a sad night for some of us,
but for the generous exertions of our good Zaptieh Halil.
August 19. Yenikieui to Boyiik Tatlar, 6 h. 49 m. We cross a
mountain between Yenikieui and Ketchi-Maghara. Thenceforward
the country is open and rolling.
August 20. Boyiik Tatlar to Ortiilii, 6 h. 14 m. The country
between Boyiik Tatlar and Kereikieui is very rough and mountainous.
From Kereikieui we go down the gorge of the Khurman Su to Khur-
man Kalesi. Khurman Kalesi is a proud castle, possibly of early
Turkish origin, situated on a crag just at the junction of the MaragosTchai with the Khurman Su.
Nos. 352-354.
On the living rock tweftty-threc minutes northwest of Khur-
man Kalesi. See my Preliminary Report, /. 39, Nos. 57,
58, 59. Copy. Photographs of B and C.
Inscription A consists of eight heroic hexameters ; B, of two hexa-
meters ; and C is an elegiac distich. B and C cannot be reached
without artificial help, which everywhere in Turkey it is difficult to
obtain. Of these two we got photographs. Inscription A can be
reached, but only with danger to life or limb. The letters are im-
mense, and the surface covered by the inscription is so great that
only a few letters in each line can be read at a time ; this done, one
must climb down and then up again, it being impossible to movehorizontally along the face of the rock. Copying the inscription was
very laborious work, as I had to remove my shoes and support myself
by my toes. First the moss was removed from the letters, then the
inscription was copied, and lastly the copy was verified.

" Epigram of Acilius Chirisophus, the son of Alexander ; also
called Philippius.^
Once upon a time, by the counsels of the Immortals, a girl rushed
down from this lofty crag and escaped unhurt from a bear. To the
two villages of Philippius and Arsinous this well-known Prion is aboundary not to be disturbed. The home of Arsinous was Sarro-
maena ; that of Philippius was Sobagena, at the confluence of two
rivers. They were faithful comrades, and may this rock declare their
unbroken friendship even to future ages."

" Of the same Chirisophus.
It is nine stadia from this rock to the fair-flowing spring of Soba-
gena, on the bank of the river Korax."
C.
" Of the same Chirisophus.
Near by is Sobagena with its bright clear baths. Ifyou will
hasten a little, you may bathe yourself after your toil."
Line 3 of ^. By consulting my Preliminary Report on this jour-
ney> P- 39» it will be seen that I inserted in the uncial text the letter
C in brackets, thus [Cj, meaning to indicate thereby that this C was
not on the rock. At first it was my intention to give only the uncial
text of the inscriptions, as I had done throughout the Report, but as
I attached importance to them, I afterwards inserted the minusculetext as well. I then forgot to erase the [C] of the uncial text.
The readings of Professor Allen {^Preliminary Report, p. 41, top)
are all undoubtedly correct except [p]a»/ijjo-i and opw;, which are
clearly wrong. The inscriptions are of prime importance for the
topography of this region.
A girl, when pursued by a bear, had rushed down over the almost
perpendicular crag, which raises its proud head to a height of about
1500 feet. By a veritable miracle she escaped unhurt, and as a
lasting memento of this great escape, two friends, Philippius and
Arsinous, one possibly her father, had these inscriptions engraved on
the rock. From the inscriptions it is clear : 1°, that Khurman Kalesi
occupies the site of Sobagena, the village of Philippius, inasmuch as
it is situated at the junction of the Maragos Tchai with the Khurman
Su ; 2°, it is clear that the ancient name of Khurman Su was the
, Korax; 3°, it is clear that Sarromaena, the village of Arsinous, must
have occupied the site of Maragos, which name may even be a cor-
ruption of Sarromaena;
4°, it is clear that the mountain bore the
name of Prion. Thus from these inscriptions we locate and give
names to two villages, a river, and a mountain. The rock on which
A is inscribed is certainly " a boundary not to be disturbed," and

nine stadia is about the true distance (^23 m.) from Khurman Kalesi
to the rock which bears inscription B.
Leaving these inscriptions, we go up the little valley of the Maragos
Tchai past Maragos to Topak Tash (not Toprak Tash) . Here we
leave the gorge, and ascend a great mountain to an elevated plateau
inhabited by inhospitable Kurds.
August 21. Ortiilii to Savoghlan, 9 h. 34 m. We descend by a
rough mountainous road to the valley of the Seihun. The valley is
of respectable size here, and contains a number of villages. The
name of the district is Saris. We were just i h. 16 m. in crossing
the valley from mountain to mountain. In crossing the mountain
west of the valley of the Seihun i h. 15 m. are taken up. Thence-
forward we go down a narrow valley until the open country is reached
in the neighborhood of Bagtchekieui.
August 22. Savoghlan to Seresek, 6 h. o m. Fifty minutes west
of Savoghlan we ford the Zamantia Tchai in the neighborhood of
Kizilkhan. Ekrek is probably the site of an ancient town. At Kara-
daghi there is a good Seldjuk Khan. Seresek is the ancient Arasaxa.August 23. Seresek to Talas, 5 h, 27 m.
August 25. Talas, via Kaisariye, to Indjesu, 6 h. 17 m.
August 26. Indjesu to Urgiip, 5 h. 9 m. We travelled all day in
a rain, so that our progress was slow. Leaving Indjesu, we cross a
ridge, and in 2 h. 37 m. we are down at Akkieui, at the head of the
very fertile valley that leads hence to Urgiip. Urgiip is a prosperous
town, well built of the soft volcanic tufa. The whole region of
country between Urgiip and Tatlar is in reality an extinct volcano.August 27. Urgiip to Udjessar, 2 h. 16 m. Martchan is the
centre of the cone formations and of the rock-cut dwellings. The
scenery is wonderful beyond all description. We spent this day and
the most of August 28th in securing a large number of photographs
of the cones and rock dwellings. The character of the rock-cut
dwellings of Martchan and Udjessar is the same as that of those at
Selme and Soghanlii Dere, already described above. Only here they
are more abundant, and the volcanic character of the country is
much more marked.
August 28. Udjessar to Nevshehir, i h. 10 m. Nevshehir is a
large and prosperous town, with excellent mosques and theological
schools.

August 29. Nevshehir to Tatlar, 2 h. 49 m. The country between
the two places is one vast and barren lava-field.
August 30. Tatfar to Hadji Bektash, 5 h. 53 m. The Halys is
wide, but not deep, at the point where we forded it. North of
Salanda we crossed a spur of Khirka Dagh to the great plain of
Hadji Bektash, the headquarters of the Dervishes and the tomb
of Hadji Bektash himself. We were entertained with distinction by
the Dervishes. There are great salt-mines in the neighborhood.
September i. Hadji Bektash to Karaseiiir, 7 h. 29 m. It was
my purpose to explore the unknown region between Hadji Bektash
as well as could be done on a straight march. The results are laid
down in the map of Northern Cappadocia which accompanies this
volume.
The country northeast of Hadji Bektash, as far as Tchroprun
Oghlu is mostly level. Here we go down the gorge of a little river
to Doiduk, then cross a ridge to KazaklU, from which point we
traverse a plain to Karaseiiir.
September 2. Karaseiiir to Hadji Shefa'atli, 5 h. 27 m. BetweenKaraseiiir and Kediler the country is undulating; at Kediler the
plain of Pashakieui is entered.
September 3. Hadji Shefa'atli to Yerkieui, 5 h. 48 m. Fourteen
minutes east of Hadji Shefa'adi is the junction of the Kara Su with
the Kanak Su ; henceforward the united stream is called the Delidje
Irmak. At this point it enters a canon, which continues as far as
Oylik, where it enters the plain. This cafion is so abrupt and pre-
cipitousthat the
roadcannot follow it, but ascends to an elevated
plateau, on which are the villages Djafali and Adjikoyun. From this
point there- is a gradual descent to the caiion, which is still impass-
able, and the road crosses a series of ridges on the right bank of the
river to Oyiik.
September 4. Yerkieui to Boyiik Nefezkieui, 4 h. 42 m. We
travelled very rapidly from Boyalik to Boyiik NefezkieuL

The number of miles is given in both Latin and Greek, as seems

certain when the milestone found by Professor Hirschfeld at Iskelib

de Galat. prov. Rom., p, iii. Pomponius Bassus is mentioned as
7r/3co-)8£VT^5 in an inscription of Ephesus recently published in the
Mittheihingen des Diutschen Archaeologischen Institutes in Athen,
1885, p. 401.
The above inscription (No. 356) is one of the most important
discoveries of the journey. The ancient Tavium was the i/xTropLov
Twv Tavrrj. It was of prime importance geographically, because it
was the centre from which diverged seven roads, five of which are
given in the Peutinger Table, and the remaining two in the Antonine
Itinerary. Distances along these roads were measured from Tavium;
consequently it was of the highest importance to discover the real
site of Tavium, for on it depends the geography of the whole country
between Ancyra and Amasia. Tavium has been located by different
scholars at Tchorum, Boyiik Nefezkieui, Boghazkieui ; but until
recently those best entitled to an opinion had settled on Boyiik
Nefezkieui as the true site, but always, be it understood, without any
documentary proof. In November, 1883, Professor Gustav Hirschfeld,
of Konigsberg, published an article " Tavium " in the Sitzungsberichte
der Academic der Wissenschaften zu Berlin, in which he declined to
accept for Tavium any of the sites hitherto suggested. He attempts
to show that Tavium must be sought on the left bank of the Halys,
and that its site is occupied by hkeltb, a degree north of Boyiik
Nefezkieui. In January, 1884, Professor Heinrich Kiepert published
in the Sitzungsberichte (as above) his Gegenbemerkungen zu der
Abhandlung des Hrn. G. Hirschfeld i'tber die Lage von Tavium, from
which it appears that he is very loath to give up the site of Boyuk
Nefezkieui as that of Tavium ; but he finally suggests Aladja, or a
point immediately southeast of Aladja.
Now my inscription (No. 356) is the first milestone from some-
where, and as distances in this region were reckoned from Tavium, it
necessarily follows that it is the first milestone on the Roman road
from Tavium to Ancyra, and consequently Tavium is located beyond
dispute at Boyiik Nefezkieui. But to make the matter doubly sure
there is still another point to be taken into consideration. In the
cemetery of Tamba Hassan, a village just two hours north of Boyiik
Nefezkieui, Mr. Haynes found Roman milliaria, one of which bore
the badly defaced inscription No. 377. Now, as I understand it,
Tamba Hassan is none other than the To??iba or Tonea of the
8/22/2019 Sterrett, An Epigraphical Journey in Asia Minor
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/sterrett-an-epigraphical-journey-in-asia-minor 323/371
IN ASIA MINOR. 311
Peutinger Table, the first station on the Roman road from Tavium
to Comana in Pontus. Hirschfeld points out that
Tomba and Toneaare two names for the same place. It must be noted that the dis-
tances, as given by the Peutinger Table, viz. Tonea XIII and Tomba
XVI MP. from Tavium, do not agree accurately with my identifica-
tion, and I should rather look for VIII instead of either XIII or XVI.
The Table is almost certainly in error, and the identification both of
Tavium and Tomba remains fixed.
It has been stated that the ruins of Boyuk Nefezkieui are too in-
significant to represent Tavium. This is not the case. It is true that
at the village itself there are only comparatively small fragments ; but
the cemeteries, both of Kotlak and the one in which No. 356 was
found, are full of architectural fragments, and the last-mentioned
cemetery has scarcely any other stones in it except cippi, columns,
and fragments of epistyles, all of considerable weight and size. A
future traveller will no doubt find the hot springs in the region of
country between Boyiik Nefezkieui and Yozgad.
I found only Roman coins at Boyiik Nefezkieui, of the Caesarean
coinage. The soil is very fertile, and yields abimdant harvests of
wheat ; and the people plant nothing else.

September 12. Arablar to Angora, o h. 58 m. At Angora we
were compelled to consider our journey finished, scientifically speak-
ing. It was necessary for Mr. Haynes to reach Nicomedia by a
certain day, in order to take the evening train for Constantinople,
and our one thought thenceforth was to travel westward as rapidly as
possible. For the sake of completeness I give the time from Angora
to the railway tenninus at Ismid.
September 13. Angora to Ayash, 7 h. 34 m.
September 14. Ayash to Kavun Ovasii Tchiftlik, 8 h. 59 m.
September 15. Kavun Ovasii Tchiftlik to Nali Khan, 7 h. 16 m.
September 16. Nali Khan to Kostebek, 5 h. 54 m.
September 17. Kostebek to Torbalii, 8 h. 40 m.
September 18, Torbalii to a Khan, 8 h. 31 m.
September 19. Khan to Sabandja, 9 h. 43 m.
September 20. Sabandja to Ismid, 5 h. 33 m.

Page 26, May 31. I have ascribed the identification of Apollonia
to Paris and Holleaux, but Waddington located Apollonia at Medet
before them.
No. 32. Pubhshed by Smith in the Journal of Hellenic Studies,
1887. The Journal is inaccessible to me, and I have not seen
Smith's article.

AMERICAN SCHOOL OF CLASSICAL
THE AMERICAN SCHOOL OF CLASSICAL STUDIES
AT ATHENS.
The American School of Classical Studies at Athens, founded by
the Archaeological Institute of America, and organized under the
auspices of some of the leading American Colleges, was opened Octo-
ber 2, 1882. During the first five years of its existence it occupied a
hired house on the 'OSos 'A/u.aA,ias in Athens, near the ruins of .the
Olympieum. A large and convenient building has now been erected
for the School on a piece of land, granted by the generous liberality of
the Government of Greece, on the southeastern slope of Mount Lyca-
bettus, adjoining the ground already occupied by the English School.
This permanent home of the School, built by the subscriptions of its
friends in the United States, will be ready for occupation early in
1888. During the first months of 1887-88, the School has been
accommodated in temporary quarters In the city.
The new building contains the apartments to be occupied by the
Director and his family, and a large room which will be used as a
library and also as a general reading-room and place of meeting for
the whole School. A few rooms in the house are intended for the
use of students. These will be assigned by the Director, under such
regulations as he may establish, to as many members of the School as
they will accommodate. Each student admitted to the privilege of a
room in the house will be expected to undertake the performance of
some service to the School, to be determined by the Director ; such,
for example, as keeping the accounts of the School, taking charge of
the delivery of books from the Library and their return, and keeping
up the catalogue of the Library.
The Library now contains about 1,500 volumes, exclusive of sets
of periodicals. It includes a complete set of the Greek classics, and
the most necessary books of reference for philological, archaeological,
and architectural study in Greece.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/sterrett-an-epigraphical-journey-in-asia-minor 363/371
STUDIES AT ATHENS.j
The advantages of the School are offered free of expense for tuition
to graduates of the CoUeges co-operating in its support, and to other
American students who are deemed by the Committee of sufficient
promise to warrant the extension to them of the privilege of member-ship. It is hoped that the Archaeological Institute may in time besupplied with the means of establishing scholarships, which will aid
some members in defraying their expenses at the School. In the
mean time, students must rely upon their own resources, or uponscholarships which may be granted them by the Colleges to which they
belong. The amount needed for the expenses of an eight months*
residence in Athens differs litde from that required in other European
capitals, and depends chiefly on the economy of the individual.
A peculiar feature of the temporary organization of the School
during its first six years, which has distinguished it from the older
German and French schools at Athens, has been the yearly change of
Director. This arrangement, by which a new Director has been sent
out each year by one of the co-operating Colleges, was never looked
upon as permanent ; and it has now been decided to begin the nextyear (1888-89) with a new organization. A Director will henceforth
be chosen for a term of five years, while an Annual Director will also
be sent out each year by one of the Colleges to assist in the conduct
of the School. (See Regulation V.) Dr. Charles Waldstein, of
New York, now Director of the Fitzwilliam Museum of Art at the
University of Cambridge, England, has been chosen Director of the
School for five years beginning in October, 1888 ; and he has accepted
the appointment on the condition that a sufficient permanent fund be
raised before that time to support the School under its new organiza-
tion. It is therefore earnestly hoped and confidently expected that
the School will henceforth be under the control of a permanent
Director, who by continuous residence at Athens will accumulate that
body of local and special knowledge without which the highest pur-
pose of such a school cannot be fulfilled. In the mean time the
School has been able, even under its" temporary organization, to meet
a most pressing want, and to be of some ser\ice to classical scholar-
ship in America. It has sought at first, and it must continue to seek
for the present, rather to arouse a lively interest in classical archaeol-
ogy in American Colleges than to accomplish distinguished achieve-
ments. The lack of this interest has heretofore been conspicuous

8 AMERICAN SCHOOL OF CLASSICAL
but without it the School at Athens, however well endowed, can never
accomplish the best results. A decided improvement in this respect
is already apparent ; and it is beyond question that the presence in
many American Colleges of professors who have been resident a year
at Athens under favorable circumstances, as annual directors or as
students of the School, has done much, and will do still more, to
stimulate intelligent interest in classic antiquity.
REGULATIONS Ot THE AMERICAN SCHOOL OF CLASSICAL
STUDIES AT ATHENS.
I. The object of the American School of Classical Studies is to
furnish an opportunity to study classical Literature, Art, and Antiqui-
ties in Athens, under suitable guidance, to graduates of American
Colleges and to other qualified students ; to prosecute and to aid
original research in these subjects ; and to co-operate with the
Archaeological Institute of America, so far as it may be able, in con-
ducting the exploration and excavation of classic sites.
II. The School is in charge of a Managing Committee. This Com-
mittee, which was originally appointed by the Archgeological Institute,
disburses the annual income of the School, and has power to add to
its membership and to make such regulations for the government of
the School as it may deem proper. The President of the Archceologi-
cal Institute and the Director and the Annual Director of the School
are ex officio members of the Managing Committee.
III. The Managing Committee meets semi-annually, in New York
on the third Friday in November, and in Boston on the third Friday in
May. Special meetings may be, called at any time by the Chairman.
IV. The Chairman of the Committee is the official representative
of the interests of the School in America. He presents a report
annually to the Archaeological Institute concerning the affairs of the
School.
V. I. The School is under the superintendence of a Director.
The Director is chosen and his salary is fixed by the Committee.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/sterrett-an-epigraphical-journey-in-asia-minor 365/371
STUDIES AT ATHENS.g
The term for which he is chosen is five years. The Committee pro-vide him with a house in Athens, containing apartments for himselfand his family, and suitable rooms for the meetings of the membersof the School, its collections, and its library.
2. Each year the Committee appoints from the instructors of the
Colleges uniting in the support of the School an Annual Director,
who resides in Athens during the ensuing year and co-operates in
the conduct of the School. In case of the illness or absence of the
Director, the Annual Director acts as Director for the time being.
VI. The Director superintends personally the work of each mem-ber of the School, advising him in what direction to turn his studies,
and assisting him in their prosecution. He conducts no regular
courses of instruction, but holds meetings of the members of the
School at stated times for consultation and discussion. He makes a
full report annually to the Managing Committee of the work accom-
plished by the School.
VII. The school year extends from the first of October to the ist
of June. Members are required to prosecute then- studies during the
whole of this time in Greek lands under the supervision of the Direc-
tor. The studies of the remaining four months necessary to complete
a full year (the shortest time for which a certificate is given) may be
carried on in Greece or elsewhere, as the student prefers.
VIII. Bachelors of Arts of co-operating Colleges, and all Bachelors
of Arts who have studied at one of these Colleges as candidates for a
higher degree, are admitted to membership in the School on present-
ing to the Committee a certificate from the instructors in Classics ofthe College at which they have last studied, stating that they are
competent to pursue an independent course of study at Athens under
the advice of the Director. All other persons desiring to become
members of the School must make application to the Committee.
Members of the School are subject to no charge for instruction. The
Committee reserves the right to modify the conditions of membership.
IX. Each member of the School must pursue some definite subject
of study or research in classical Literature, Art, or Antiquities, and
must present a thesis or report, embodying the results of some impor-
tant part of his year's work. These theses, if approved by the Direc-
tor, are sent to the Managing Committee, by which each thesis is
referred to a sub-committee of three members, of whom two are

appointed by the Chairman, and the third is ahvays the Director
under whose supervision the thesis was prepared. If recommendedfor pubUcation by this sub-committee, the thesis or report may be
issued in the Papers of the School.
X. When any member of the School has completed one or more
full years of study, the results of which have been approved by the
Director, he receives a certificate stating the work accomplished by
him, signed by the Director of the School, the President of the
Archaeological Institute, and the Chairman and the Secretary of the
Managing Cgmmittee.XL American students resident or travelling in Greece who are
not regular members of the School may, at the discretion of the
Director, be enrolled as special students and enjoy the privileges of
the School.
