JULIUS NIKANOR, THE NEOS HOMEROS

 

The n°ow ÜOmhrow ka‹ n°ow Yemistokl∞w (Gaius) Julius Nikanor, who hailed from Hierapolis in Syria, figures highly in Athens' life in the years after A.D. 60 [but before A.D. 100]. This is presently the best date for Julius Nikanor, and since he hailed from Syria it may be that he should be connected with the coming of Philopappos to Athens, even though Julius Nikanor does not appear as one of Plutarch's friends. In any case, Stephanus Byzantius has coupled him with Poplios and Sarapion, the Stoics,who came to Athens about this time: s.v. ÑIerãpoliw ..., éfÉ o Nikãnvr ı n°ow ÜOmhrow ka‹ PÒpliow ka‹ Sarap€vn StvÛko€, and this would suggest that they are more or less contemporaries. Sarapion is apparently Plutarch's friend, as observed in ÑEllhnikå 33 (1981='83), p. 231, Appendix, K1.

At Athens, as the evidence shows, Julius Nikanor became a leading personality, and he had a contractual association with the island of Salamis. It has been speculated from a passage in Dio Chrysostom, Or. XXXI, 116: ... l°gein d¢ efi≈yhsan ofl diasÊrontew tØn pÒlin (sc. ÉAyÆnaw) ka‹ tÚ §p€gramma tÚ §p‹ t∞w Nikãnorow efikÒnow ˜w (…w) aÈto›w ka‹ tØn Salam›na §vnÆsato, that Julius Nikanor bought Salamis for the Athenians, after it had been lost. However, the surviving evidence about Julius Nikanor does not match Dio Chrysostom's §p€gramma which caused criticism of the Athenians. Consequently, there is still some obstacle in identifying indisputably Julius Nikanor with Dio Chrysostom's Nikanor. The evidence concerning the date of Julius Nikanor has been reviewed by the writer in ÑEllhnikå 33 (1981), pp. 217-237, with a summary in Greek, and his involvement with the island of Salamis was contractual, as observed above, rather than that the Athenians had lost Salamis (and to whom would the Athenians have lost the island?) and Julius Nikanor recovered it for the Athenians. Moreover, since he belongs to the years after A.D. 60, his nomen Julius cannot go directly to Augustus, as conjectured. His civitas was rather inherited from his father, or it was owed to a Julius patron of a non-imperial family. The theme of Salamis and Julius Nikanor has been restated in this journal as well [ZPE 111 (1996), pp. 79- 87] by Christian Habicht, and A. Geoffrey Woodhead has compactly dealt with the matter in The Athenian Agora, XVI (1997) [=Agora XVI (1997)], pp. 474-477, under No. 337=Hesperia 36 (1967), pp. 68-71, No. 13, which is a contract involving the Athenians, Julius Nikanor and Salamis or land there (above).

However, the present study is primarily concerned with a fuller restoration of the now lost IG II2 1069 [frgs. a and b], and also the full TESTIMONIA on Julius Nikanor are appended below. IG II2 1069 honors Julius Nikanor, and an apographum by A. Moustoxydis, a copy of which E. Erxleben sent to the writer some years ago (22.3.1979), was available. K. Pittakes' transcription [of IG II2 1069] in L'anc. Athènes, p. 493, together with O. Leuders' reading of frg. a, which he had found in a house at ıdÚw EÈaggelistr€aw No. 34, was republished by K. Keil in Rh.Museum 18 (1863), p. 57, and by W. Dittenberger in Ephem. Epigr. I (1872), p. 114, and IG III, No. 1, with some minor alterations. The text of IG II2 1069 by J. Kirchner, who also had at his disposal a second apographum of frgs. a and b, which Pittakes had made in 1831, is reproduced below for comparison purposes.

COMMENTARY:

 

Line 1: k[a€]. Moustoxydis read what has the shape of K, and for the restoration that follows, cf. Inscr. de Délos, No. 2535, lines 1-3: égayª tÊxhi/ toË SebastoË Ka€sarow ka‹ toË dÆmou/ toË ÉAyhna€vn, which dates from A.D. 94/5-102/3 (writer in ÑEllhnikå 33, 1981, p. 225). R. Neubauer proposed to read K[laud. N°rvnow] in Comment. Epigr. (1869), p. 147. One could perhaps interpret Moustoxydis' K as a N, which would then read as (N)[°rvnow], but this appears precluded, because the person that stands out in Nero's reign to at least A.D. 61/2 is T. Claudius Nouios ex Oiou, who is No. 541 in the writer's dissertation, The Early Expansion of Roman Citizenship into Attica during the First Part of the Empire, 200 B.C.-A.D. 70 (Yale University, 1963). The dissertation's scope may be found in ÉArx. ÉEfhm. 1981, Xronikã, p. 23, note 5, as well as the Greek name NoÊiow (Nouios rather than Novius as by some in the past), on p. 25, note 4.

 

LINES 1-2: [Ga€ou ÉIoul€ou]/ Lãkvnow êrxontow. The name Lakon suggests that this archon may have hailed from the Spartan family of Julius Eurykles; for an identification, cf. ÑEllhnikå 33 (1981='83), p. 237, K33. However, if he had served in Athens as archon eponymos, this important function should have appeared in his cursus honorum. Its absence would lead to the conclusion that the identification of the archon is undoubtedly erroneous.

LINE 2: DroÊso[u]. Pittakes has DROUSOU in L'anc. Athènes.

LINE 2 ad fin.: [sunaxye€shw kur€aw]. Cf. B. D. Meritt and J. S. Traill, The Athenian Agora, XV (1974), No. 460, line 5: boulØ sunÆxyh, of A.D. 209/10.

LINE 3: EKKLHSIAS, Pittakes in L'anc. Athènes; Moustoxydis, EKKLHSIA; [∏w §grammãteue, ktl.], this writer.

LINE 4: ÉArx[-], Pittakes. Moustoxydis indicated only an A. For [ka‹ ofl sunprÒedroi: chfisam°nhw t∞w §j] (this writer), cf. Agora XV (under Line 2 ad fin. above), No. 460, line 4. EÈyÊdomow ÉArx[-] is not otherwise known.

LINE 5: [ka‹ toË dÆmou toË ÉAyhna€vn: Gãion ÉIoÊlion], this writer.

LINE 6: n°on [Yemistokl°a ka€]; Pittakes has NEON; Moustoxydis NE.

LINE 7: [strathgÒn]; or perhaps [tam€an]?.

LINE 8: §n t(«i) §[p€, ktl., this writer. Pittakes has ENTONE in L'anc. Athènes, while Moustoxydis recorded TO .

LINES 8-9: diå tØn prÒfa]/sin; cf. Agora XVI (1997), No. 337 (TESTIMONIA below, under D), lines 9-10: profãsei xrhsãme/[now].

LINE 9: (pr)Ò[w, ktl., writer. Pittakes, TIO; Moustoxydis, TI.

LINE 10: é[nØr égayÚw genÒmenow; or perhaps (n)[°ow ÜOmhrow, ktl. Pittakes read an A after NIKANVR (cf. IG III, No. 1). Moustoxydis recorded no letters or traces of letters below line 9.

 

An archontum laterculus associates Julius Nikanor with T. Claudius Theogenes Paianieus, thus indicating that they belong to the same period. The document is IG II2 1723=SEG 26 (1976- '77='79), No. 166=ÑEllhnikå 33 (1981='83), p. 230 (=pp. 229-231), whose lines 14-17 read strathgÚw [§p‹ tå] ˜pla ÉIoÊliow/ Nikãnvr, n°ow [ÜOmhro]w ka‹ n°ow Yemis[tokl∞w]/ k∞ruj t∞w §[j ÉA]r[e€ou p]ãgou boul∞w Ti[b Kl]/ vacat Ye[og°]nhw PaianieÊw vacat (the iota in Ti[b] should be dotted). Moreover, the evidence suggests that Julius Nikanor belongs to the years after T. Claudius Nouios ex Oiou, namely, after A.D. 60/1, when Claudius Nouios is attested for the last time in IG II2 1990, lines 3-6: strathgoËntow §p‹ toÁw ıple€taw tÚ ˆgdoon ka‹ érxier°vw N°rvnow Klaud€ou Ka€sarow GermanikoË/ ka‹ DiÚw ÉEleuyer€ou §k t«n <§k t«n> ÑEllÆnvn v ka‹ §pi[m]elhtoË t∞w pÒlevw diå b€ou v ka‹ fler°vw Dhl€ou ÉApÒl/lvnow v ka‹ §pimelhtoË t∞w flerçw DÆlou v v ka[‹ érxi]er°vw toË o‡kou t«n Sebast«n v ka‹ ér€stou/ t«n ÑEllÆnvn v ka‹ nomoy°tou v Tiber[€ou] Klaud€ou v Nou€ou v §j O‡ou. Claudius Theogenes Paianieus falls chronologically after Claudius Nouios, which would automatically place Julius Nikanor after A.D. 60. Finally, it should be borne in mind that Claudius Nouios' and Julius Nikanor's paths do not cross, at least as the present evidence stands.

COMMENTARY:

Lines 1 and 5, as completed, indicate a line length of about 67 letters.

LINE 1: k[a€].  Moustoxydis read what has the shape of K [LINE 2 below], and for the restoration, cf. Inscr. de Délos, No. 2535, lines 1-3: égayª tÊxhi/ toË SebastoË Ka€sarow ka‹ toË dÆmou/ toË ÉAyhna€vn, which dates from A.D.   94/5-102/3 (ÑEllhnikå 33, 1981, 225).  R. Neubauer, for example, had proposed a reading of K[laud. N°rvnow] in Comment. Epigr. (1869), 147; see also under IG III 1.   

LINES 1-2: [Ga€ou ÉIoul€ou]/ Lãkvnow êrxontow.  The name Lakon suggests that this archon may have hailed from the Spartan family of Julius Eurykles; for an identification, cf. ÑEllhnikå 33,1981='83), 237, K33.

LINE 2: DroÊso[u].  Pittakes has DROUSOU in L'anc. Athènes, 493, and Moustoxydis’ apographum DROUSC [see ÑEllhnikå 33, 1981, 225].  NOTE:  Someone wrote on the margin /ou, completing DroÊsou, with a comment there on Drusus in Italian. 

LINE 2 ad fin.: [sunaxye€shw kur€aw]; cf. B. D. Meritt and J. S. Traill, The Athenian Agora, XV (1974), No. 460, line 5: boulØ sunÆxyh, of A.D. 209/10.

LINE 3: EKKLHSIAS, Pittakes; Moustoxydis EKKLHSIA (under Line 2 above, respectively); [∏w §grammãteue, ktl.], cf. Agora XV (Line 2 ad fin. above), No. 460, line 2: [pru]tane€aw, ∏w §grammãteuen.

LINE 4: ÉArx[-], Pittakes; Moustoxydis indicated only an A, or L? (respectively, under Line 2 above).  EÈyÊdomow ÉArx[-] is otherwise unknown.

LINE 5: [ka‹ toË dÆmou toË ÉAyhna€vn], cf. IG II2  4193A, lines 1-3: ≤ §j ÉAre€ou pãgou boulØ ka‹ / ≤ boulØ t«n •jakos€vn / ka‹ ı d∞mow ı ÉAyhna€vn, fin. s. I p.  The restoration of [Gãion ÉIoÊlion] at the end of this line is dictated by the name Nikãnora at the beginning of line 6.

LINE 6: n°on [Yemistokl°a ka€]; Pittakes has NEON; Moustoxydis NE (respectively, under Line 2 above).

LINE 7 ad init.:  égvnoy°thn Sebast«n é[g≈nvn], see ÉArx.

NOTE. The only necessary and crucial comment/observation here is on the end of line 9: BOULHSvTI[-], with a squeezed v, it seems, between S and T, as indicated. As to what is to be read after the T, the squeeze favors TI[-], as transcribed, but the iota dotted. The space after the T indicates that no O was inscribed there, for part of the omikron would have been detectable next to the T; what the squeeze, however, shows is an I reading [as Markellos Th. Mitsos, in the presence of this writer, read by means of the <<water-charcoal treatment>>=ELLHNIKA 33 (1981) 230]. Consequently, the TI[-] cannot be read as t[Ú bÉ], referring to Nikanor’s second hoplite generalship, for example, nor even completing the name Yemis/t[okl∞w]. The only possible reading then there is Ti[b. Kl.], with a dotted iota, as previously argued=RFIC 104.3 (1976) 376, ELLHNIKA (herein) 230: k∞ruj t∞w §j [ÉA]r[e€ou p]ãgou boul∞w Ti[b.

Simone Follet, BE 1999, 608, under No. 211, opts for an earlier date [IG II2 1723, E above] than Kapetanopoulos', which correctly places Julius Nikanor to the period after A.D. 41/2 [full testimonia in ÑEllhnikå 33 (1981) 217-237]. The same is done by Alessandra Coppola, although not mentioning Kapetanopoulos, in "COSENSO E DISSENSO AD ATENE NELL'ETA DI AUGUSTO" [=BE 1999, No. 218, for full title] 667-670; by focusing on past speculations concerning the date and role of Julius Nikanor Coppola includes Julius Nikanor under the reign of Augustus, at the same time suggesting [669] that the explanation of the erasing of his titles n°ow ÜOmhrow ka‹ n°ow Yemistokl∞w [3786-3787, 3789 above, for example] may be found in Julius Nikanor, the son of Areios, of IG II2 3785 [above].
