Transliterations on Places on

[1] This relief plaque was dedicated in the Asklepieion on the south slope of the Acropolis (on which, see IG II³ 4, 665). The relief is an ‘anatomical votive’ depicting a disembodied foot and ankle (cf. AIUK 4.5, pp. 69; J. Draycott and E.-J. Graham, Bodies of Evidence, 2017). The dedicator, whose name is a variant spelling of the very common name Epaphroditos, is not otherwise attested.
