Transliterations on Places on

[1] This roughly cut inscription on a statue base is identified as a dedication to Asklepios, on the basis of its findspot, on the south slope of the Acropolis, where there was a major sanctuary of Asklepios (on which, see IG II³ 4, 665). Kallistone, who is not otherwise attested, made the dedication along with another Theban, whose name is lost.
