20.  That Corinth was not completely deserted after the destruction by Mummius, it is evinced  from a number of coins found there and belonging to the period 146-44 B.C. (cf. J. M. Harris, Hesperia, X, 1941, p. 158; and H. S. Robinson, ibid., XXXI, 1962, p. 130  (THE COINS); see also F. J. de Waele, AJA, XXXV, 1931, pp. 410-411).  Moreover, Junia Theodora, a ÑRvma€a residing at Corinth, is called katoikoËsa (cf. SEG, XVIII, 1962, p. 51 (n. 143), ll. 1/2, 22/23, 45, 47, 63, and 67=BCH, LXXXIII-1959, pp. 498-500), and this may possibly identify the Romans as ÑRvma›oi ofl katoikoËntew and signify that the Greek community antedated the founding of the colony.

offprints:

AN ADDENDUM TO “SOME REMARKS ON THE ATHENIAN PRYTANEIS”

After the manuscript’s submittal for publication, the following relevant items were noticed:

 (1) To the prytaneis appearing to have served in their early twenties (above) must be added (E)uphe(m)os son of As(klepiades Pal(eeneus))  of No. 380, line 9, of 169/70, who is attested as ephebe in IG II2 2094+2015, line 36, of about 166/7 (see S. Follet, p. 225).  Euphemos would be the youngest attested prytanis, if the association is correct, as he would have been about twenty-one in 169/70.  Moreover, it appears that Euphemos is mentioned again as prytanis in SEG XIX (1963), p. 69, No. 165, line 6: [E]Îfhmow ÉAs`[klhpiãdou], of about 169/70 now (for the dotted sigma, see Hesperia XXIX, 1960, Pl. 20, No. 111).  His son is listed in line 7: [ÉAs]klhpiã[dhw EÈfÆmou], or perhaps his brother [ÉAs]klhpiã[dhw )].  The associations and restorations are this writer’s.

 (2)  Cn. Licinnius Attikos son of Licinnius Arrianos Gar(gettios) is attested as ephebe in IG II2 3733 , lines 11-14, of 126/7, and undoubtedly he must be identified with one by the same name prytaneis of No. 371, lines 11 (likely) and 27, of 138/9 (Licinnius Attikos (Gargettios)).  If an association can be made, then the ephebe Licinnius Attikos was serving as prytanis in his thirtieth year in 138/9.  This would be additional evidence for the minimal age of thirty (above).

 (3) Claudius Philetos Athmoneus who is attested as ephebe in IG II2 2094+2015, lines 24 and 47, of about 166/7 (under No. 1 above) is apparently the prytanis Cl. Philetos (Athmoneus) of No. 402, line 49, which has been dated to 181/2.  If this date is correct, then Cl. Philetos was serving as prytanis at about his thirty-third year.  However, the date of No. 402 is not assured, and it may be that Cl. Philetos served in his thirtieth year or even earlier, in which case he may be another underage prytanis.

 (4) The possibility of homonymy in Nos. 2 and 3 (above, under the ‘four” and “three time” prytaneis respectively) may be strengthened by the appearance of homonymous

ephebes at about 173 (see TALANTA VI, 1975, p. 25, lines 42-43).

 (5)  Of the fragmentary No. 463 (above) only 9 Aur(elii) were included in the percentage comparison.  However, it may be possible to establish how many more Aur(elii) were inscribed through a percentage comparison of the 9 Aur(elii) against the 2 non-Aurelii (lines 5 and 11).  Of the total 11 names (1 fragmentary is excluded), the non-Aurelii comprise 18%.  When this percentage is multiplied by 40 (total number of prytaneis), the non-Aurelii come to 7.2.  In other words, the Aur(elii) appear to have numbered 33.  Since the surviving 11 names have already been included in the comparison (above), there remain the 24 Aur(elii) and 5 non-Aurelii.  When these are added to the Aurelii and non-Aurelii after 212, the total is 130 (24+106) and 279 (5+274) respectively, with a percentage comparison of 31.785% (Aurelii) to 68.215% (non-Aurelii) of 409 names.  The increase here in favor of the Aurelii is 3.885% (from the previous 27.9%).  There is also No. 413 (above), but the number of Aur(elii) prytaneis, whose names have been lost, cannot be determined.  However, the same analogy for No. 463 (above) may be applied here, too, and it would give us 33 Aur(elii) to 7 non-Aurelii.  When these are added to the 130 Aurelii and 279 non-Aurelii (above), the percentage comes to 36.3% (163 Aurelii) and 63.7% (286 non-Aurelii) respectively (of a total of 449 names).  Thus, as the evidence has been reinterpreted here, the Aurelii are not a majority among the  prytaneis of 212 and after, and this minimizes the effect of the Constitutio Antoniniana.  And it should be borne in mind that this high per- centage (36.3%) of Aurelii was reached with the inclusion of the collectively listed Aurelii of Nos. 470, 476 and 482 (above).

 (6)  For a previous brief comment on the repetition of the office of the prytanis, see Daniel J. Geagan, The Athenian Constitution after Sulla, Hesperia, Suppl. XII (1967), p. 75, with note 57.
